-etic, -etics

(Greek: -etikos, an adjective suffix meaning "pertaining to, of the nature of" for nouns ending in -esis)

eukinetic
galactopoietic
Increasing the flow of milk; milk-producing. A galactopoietic substance.
geodetic (adjective) (not comparable)
Relating to the geometry of curved surfaces: Geodetic theories, techniques, or results of geodesy utilize the precise measurement of the Earth's surface or of points on its rounded surface.
geomagnetic (adjective) (not comparable)
Relating to the magnetic properties (geomagnetism) of the Earth: A geomagnetic study involves the sources, configurations, and changes in the Earth's magnetic field. It includes the interpretation of the remaining magnetism in rocks as a result of the Earth's magnetic field at the time when the rocks were formed, which is known as "paleomagnetism".

geomagnetic field (s) (noun), geomagnetic fields (pl)
The lines of force encvircling a permanent magnet or a moving charged element: The magnetic field is present in and around the Earth.

The intensity of the magnetic field at the Earth's surface is approximately 0.32 gauss at the equator and 0.62 gauss at the north pole.

A "gauss" is equivalent to 1 maxwell per square centimeter, and a "Maxwell" is equivalent to the flux that produces one abvolt in a one-turn circuit when the flux is reduced to zero at a uniform rate in one second, while a "flux" is the electric or magnetic field lines of force that traverse a given cross-sectional area.

glucokinetic
1. Having the ability to activate glucose, especially by breaking down stored glycogen so as to increase glucose concentrations in the blood.
2. Activating sugar so as to maintain the sugar level of the blood.
3. Tending to mobilize glucose; usually evidenced by a reduction of the glycogen stores in the tissues to produce an increase in the concentration of glucose circulating in the blood.
gyromagnetic
1. Relating to or caused by the magnetism produced by the spinning motion of a charged particle.
2. Resulting from the magnetic properties of a spinning, electrically charged particle.
