Biological_Clocks

Biological Clocks Biological clocks, internal molecular machines that keep track of time within organisms, and circadian rhythms, which keep track of the 24-hour cycle of day and night and light and dark, both enable organisms to adapt their behavior according to the most suitable conditions. There are many selective advantages that go along with the biological clocks of organisms, allowing them to be more productive, reproduce more easily, and mature in the most favorable conditions. These internal clocks help to ensure the evolutionary success of a creature within its habitat or environment during the most favorable conditions. Plants are more plentiful in the summer due to increased sunlight, growing more than they do in any other reason. Animals often hunt of forage for food in the daylight, especially during the summer, when food is the most plentiful and grows the best. It is their internal clocks that tell them to begin to gather the food needed, not only for that season but also for seasons ahead, when food will not be as readily available.
