Fyziologicky

Fyziologicky is a Czech adverb meaning in a manner related to physiology or in terms of physiological processes. It describes how something occurs within the normal functioning of a living organism or how a process corresponds to the body's typical functions. The term is derived from the science of physiology (fyziologie) and the adjective fyziologický; the adverb form fyziologicky is used to modify verbs or adjectives.

Etymology and form: Fyziologie comes from the German Physiologie, which in turn derives from Greek roots physis (nature) and logos (study). The Czech adjective fyziologický means relating to physiology, and its adverbial form fyziologicky is regularly used in scientific and medical writing to denote physiologically oriented description or interpretation.

Usage: The word is common in scientific contexts such as biology, medicine, and physiology, where authors distinguish normal physiological responses from pathological or artificial conditions. Examples include: "Fyziologicky zrychlený tep je součástí reakce na námahu." (A physiologically accelerated heart rate is part of the response to exertion.) "Fyziologicky probíhající výměna plynů v plicích zajišťuje udržení homeostázy." (The physiologically ongoing gas exchange in the lungs maintains homeostasis.) "Fyziologicky normální hodnoty krevního tlaku zůstávají stabilní během klidového stavu." (Physiologically normal blood pressure values remain stable during rest.)

Relation to other terms: Fyziologický describes a property or relation to physiology (adjective), while fyziologie is the field of study. The adverb fyziologicky is used when the sentence requires describing how a process occurs rather than naming it as a property.
