| Terms for subject Environment (7024 entries) |
| music (The artistic organization of sounds or tones that expresses ideas and emotions through the elements of rhythm, melody, harmony and tonal color) | muzika | |
| mussel farming (Breeding of mussels for sale as food) | midijų auginimas | |
| mustelid (A large, diverse family of low-slung, long-bodied carnivorous mammals including minks, weasels, and badgers; distinguished by having only one molar in each upper jaw, and two at the most in the lower jaw) | kiaunių šeimos žvėreliai | |
| mutagen (An agent that raises the frequency of mutation above the spontaneous rate. An agent that causes changes to plants and animals, particularly to their genetic material and especially at the time of reproduction. Certain chemicals and forms of radiation are powerful mutagens that damage the DNA, or genetic material in the centre of every cell of a living organism) | mutagenas | |
| mutagenic substance (Agents that induce a permanent change in the genetic material) | mutageninė medžiaga | |
| mutagenicity (The property of chemical or physical agents of inducing changes in genetic material that are transmitted during cell division) | mutageniškumas | |
| mutagenicity testing (Testing the property of a substance of being able to induce genetic mutation) | mutageniškumo tyrimas | |
| mutant (An individual bearing an allele that has undergone mutation and is expressed in the phenotype) | mutantas | |
| mutated micro-organisms release (The release of mutated micro-organisms creates the risk that they may exhibit some previously unknown pathogenicity, might take over from some naturally occurring bacteria (possibly having other positive functions which thus are lost) or pass on some unwanted trait to such indigenous bacteria. There is also concern that an uncontrolled genetic mutation could produce from such an engineered microorganism, a form with hazardous consequences for the environment) | mutavusių mikroorganizmų paskleidimas | |
| mutation (A change in the chemical constitution of the DNA in the chromosomes of an organism: the changes are normally restricted to individual genes, but occasionally involve serious alteration to whole chromosomes. When a mutation occurs in gametes or gametocytes an inherited change may be produced in the characteristics of the organisms that develop from them. Mutation is one of the ways in which genetic variation is produced in organisms. A somatic mutation is one that occurs to a body cell, and is consequently past on to all the cells derived from it by mitosis. Natural mutations, at this stage of biological evolution, when they occur in the cells of higher animals, almost always produce deleterious characteristics. Both natural and artificial mutations can be brought about by ionizing radiation (hence the genetic and carcinogenic dangers of nuclear weapons) and by certain chemical substances called mutagens) | mutacija | |
| mycete (Nucleated usually filamentous, sporebearing organisms devoid of chlorophyll) | micetas | |
| mycology (The branch of botany concerned with the study of fungi) | mikologija | |
| mycorrhiza (The symbiotic association of the root of a higher plant with a fungus. In an ectotrophic mycorrhiza (e.g., heath, pine trees) the fungal mycelium covers the outside of the roots; in an endotrophic mycorrhiza (e.g. orchids) the fungus grows inside the cells of the root cortex) | mikorizė | |
| myth (A traditional or legendary story, usually dealing with supernatural beings, ancestors, heroes or events, that is with or without determinable basis of fact or a natural explanation, but is used to explain some practice, rite or phenomenon of nature, or to justify the existence of a social institution) | mitas | |

| Nagoya Protocol on ABS | Nagojos protokolas dėl galimybės naudotis genetiniais ištekliais ir sąžiningo bei teisingo naudos, gaunamos juos naudojant, pasidalijimo | |
| Nagoya Protocol on Access to Genetic Resources and the Fair and Equitable Sharing of Benefits Arising from their Utilization to the Convention on Biological Diversity | Nagojos protokolas dėl galimybės naudotis genetiniais ištekliais ir sąžiningo bei teisingo naudos, gaunamos juos naudojant, pasidalijimo | |
| national accounting (Organised method of recording all business transactions in the national economy) | nacionalinė apskaita | |
| national allowance holding account | nacionalinė leidimų sąskaita | |
