OBS

genético: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que los términos "genético", "génico" y "genómico" no significan lo mismo, por lo que no pueden utilizarse como sinónimos. [...] Según el Diccionario académico, "genético" tiene que ver con algo 'perteneciente o relativo a la genética', entendiendo la genética como la parte de la biología que trata de la herencia y de lo relacionado con ella. [...] En cambio, el mismo diccionario se refiere a "génico" como algo 'perteneciente o relativo a los genes'.
