Morphology

biogenetically = biogenetic (opaque) = bio + gene + tic + ally

The adverbial ending is regular, but the sense 'produced by living organisms' is a specialized scientific meaning that is not readily recoverable from the parts.

Etymology

Biogenetically comes from bio- ('life') and genetic (the same root as generate and gene). So to say something is done biogenetically is to say it is 'produced by living things' or made through natural life processes.
