Kinetics (with an "s" at the
end) refers to the rate of change in a biochemical (or
other) reaction, the study of reaction rates. Kinetics is a
noun. It is distinct from "kinetic" (an adjective) meaning
with movement. The opposite of kinetic is akinetic which
means without movement. In neurology, kinetic and akinetic
serve to denote the presence or absence of movement.
Kinetic comes from the Greek word "kinesis" for motion. The
term "akinetic" is put together from the prefix "a-"
meaning "without" + "kinesis" = without motion. Kinesis is
verbatim from the Greek "kinesis."
