Root Explanation

Cymogene is derived from the Greek roots "kyma" (meaning wave) and "genes" (meaning born of or produced by). The word refers to something that is produced by waves, often used in scientific contexts related to sound or light waves.

Memory Tip

Think of 'waves' ('kyma') producing something ('genes') — that's why cymogene relates to phenomena created by waves.
