What do we call biological changes that occur on a daily schedule?
A
biorhythms
B
circadian rhythms
C
ultradian rhythms
D
biophasic rhythms
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Circadian rhythms are physical, mental, and behavioral changes that follow a 24-hour cycle. These natural processes respond primarily to light and dark and affect most living things, including animals, plants, and microbes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Biological rhythm is a phrase often used interchangeably with circadian rhythm. These rhythms are a series of bodily functions regulated by your internal clock. They control cycles like sleep and wakefulness, body temperature, hormone secretion, and more.

Detailed explanation-3: -The circadian clock has an internally driven 24-hour rhythm that tends to run longer than 24 hours but resets every day by the sun’s light/dark cycle. Taking melatonina supplements can also shift the timing of the body’s “clock.” Some people use melatonina as a sleep aid: it has a mild sleep-promoting effect.
