-genesis
-genesis (from ancient Greek γένεσις genesis " birth , emergence") is the second part of a compound word and is part of numerous technical terms. In the case of adjectives , -gen is added instead (meaning, depending on the context, “originated, generated” or “generating, effecting”).
Examples
- Current genesis : concrete current "development"; for example a perception
- Allogenesis : “normal” diversification in the context of evolution ; see: adaptive radiation
- anthropogenic : man-made, created under the influence of man
- Arogenesis : rare, extensive development in the course of evolution, which makes it possible, for example, to develop new habitats
- biogenic : produced by living beings
- Biogenesis : development of a single multicellular organism
- Blastogenesis : Development of the blastocyst in mammals in the first few days after fertilization
- Chalcogens : "ore formers" (plural), a group of chemical elements
- Diagenesis : rock formation of the loose sediments
- Embryogenesis : Development of the unborn life up to the formation of the organ systems
- Epigenesis : genetic changes due to adaptation in the course of a lifetime
- Fetogenesis : Development of the fetus after the organs have formed until birth
- Gluconeogenesis : production of glucose from organic non-carbohydrate precursors in cells
- Halogens : "Salt formers" (plural), a group of chemical elements
- Carcinogenesis : development of cancer ( tumor , carcinoma )
- Lithogenesis : rock formation
- Morphogenesis : development of organs and other structures and features in the course of the development of living things
- Mutagenesis : Creation of mutations in the genome of living things

- Psychogenesis : Development of the psychological structure of an individual in the course of his life history
- Salutogenesis : the concept of "health emergence" that is not widely used as an antithesis to pathogenesis
- Somatogenesis : Development of the organs in the embryo into organs
- Spermatogenesis : Formation of sperm , i.e. male germ cells.
- Stasigenesis : development within the framework of evolution which largely does not include development; thus further specialization with possible restriction of the genome with constant environmental conditions
