What is another word for Biological Clocks?
Pronunciation: [bˌa͡ɪəlˈɒd͡ʒɪkə͡l klˈɒks] (IPA) 
Biological clocks, commonly referred to as circadian rhythms, are inherent mechanisms that regulate various physiological and behavioral processes in living organisms. These internal clocks dictate sleep-wake cycles, hormone secretion, and metabolism, among other biological functions. Although primarily associated with the sleep-wake cycle, the term "biological clocks" has several synonyms that highlight the diverse aspects of these regulatory processes. Some alternative expressions include "internal timekeepers", "circadian pacemakers", and "endogenous oscillators". These terms emphasize the intrinsic nature of these mechanisms, emphasizing their capacity to independently maintain rhythmicity in the absence of external cues. Understanding the intricacies of biological clocks contributes to various disciplines, from sleep medicine to chronobiology, enabling scientists to unravel the fascinating dynamics of living organisms' temporal organization.
