| biological phenomena | Biological functions and activities at the organic and molecular levels in humans, animals, microorganisms, and plants. For biochemical and metabolic processes, biochemical phenomena is available. (12 Dec 1998) |
| chemical and pharmacologic phenomena | Chemical, pharmacologic, and metabolic action and interaction of drugs. (12 Dec 1998) |
| microbiologic phenomena | Physiological processes and activities of microorganisms, including archaea, bacteria, rickettsia, viruses, protozoa, and fungi. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cooperative phenomena | <radiobiology> The effects of interacting particles acting collectively, rather than individually. Includes plasma oscillations, turbulence, and instabilities. (Plasmas are distinguished from collections of individual particles in that they exhibit cooperative phenomena in which the plasma participates as a unified entity.) Early fusion researchers who devised fusion schemes based upon theories where plasmas acted as merely a collection of individual particles (and therefore sought to confine only individual particles) often found themselves frustrated at the ability of plasma cooperative phenomena (such as magnetohydrodynamic instabilities) to thwart their efforts.

| psychological phenomena and processes | Mechanisms and underlying psychological principles of mental processes and their applications. (12 Dec 1998) |
| calcification, physiologic | Process by which organic tissue becomes hardened by the physiologic deposit of calcium salts. (12 Dec 1998) |
| physiologic | Normal, not pathologic, characteristic of or conforming to the normal functioning or state of the body or a tissue or organ, physiological. (18 Nov 1997) |
| physiologic age | Age estimated in terms of function. (05 Mar 2000) |
| physiologic albuminuria | Presence of slight traces of protein in otherwise normal urine. Synonym: functional albuminuria. (05 Mar 2000) |
| physiologic amenorrhoea | Amenorrhoea of pregnancy or the menopause, not associated with an organic disorder. (05 Mar 2000) |
| physiologic anaemia | An obsolete term for apparent anaemia caused by increased fluid volume of the blood (overhydration). (05 Mar 2000) |
| physiologic anisocoria | A common (20% of normals) benign inequality of the pupils that may change from one hour to the next. Synonym: essential anisocoria, physiologic anisocoria, simple-central anisocoria. (05 Mar 2000) |
