Hi Dibbibbi!

According to Merriam-Webster dictionary:

Main Entry: phys·i·o·log·i·cal
Pronunciation: \ˌfi-zē-ə-ˈlä-ji-kəl\
Variant(s): or phys·i·o·log·ic  \-jik\
Function: adjective
Date: 1814
1 : of or relating to physiology
2 : characteristic of or appropriate to an organism's healthy or
normal functioning <the sodium level was physiological>
3 : differing in, involving, or affecting physiological factors <a
physiological strain of bacteria>
— phys·i·o·log·i·cal·ly  \-ji-k(ə-)lē\ adverb

Some adjectives have a variant form. So I suggest you take a look at
good online dictionary such as:

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/dictionary.htm
http://dictionary.cambridge.org/define.asp?key=46972&dict=CALD

Best Regards

Lil
