| Description |
Every creature on earth adapts to the cycle of day and night. We are familiar with these behaviors, such as the sleep-wake cycle in humans, wheel running in lab rats, or feeding in rabbits. Physiologic function varies over a period of about 24 hours, too. It is called a circadian period (circe diem, about a day). In humans, the circadian period is 24.2 hours. |
