Morphology
serologically = serological (semi-transparent) = serology + ical + ly
The adverb is formed by the regular adjective->adverb derivation (serological + -ly), a standard and transparent process for learners who know 'serological'.
Etymology
Serologically comes from serum, the clear liquid part of blood, and -logy, which means 'study', as in biology. So serologically means 'by studying blood serum', for example using blood tests to find past infection or the body's immune response.
