Morphology

diversely = diverse (transparent) = diverse + ly

The adverb is formed by the standard addition of '-ly' to the adjective 'diverse', yielding the expected meaning 'in a diverse manner'.

Etymology

Diversely comes from the same root as diverse and diversity, from an old Latin idea of 'turning different ways'. So, to act diversely is to do things in various, different ways.
