INTRODUCTION
BIOLOGICAL RHYTHMS
• Circadian rhythm.
CIRCADIAN RHYTHM
PHYSIOLOGY
• Palolo worms.
• Fire worms.
• Sea lily.
• May fly swarming.
The breeding rhythms of these animals are in relation to the
phases of moon.
Ex- Classical ex palolo worm.
A tube dweller in coral reefs in the burrow beneath sea, but the
posterior ends distended with ripe gametes, break off and
wriggle to surface in such waste number that water is milky and
hour or two with then egg and sperms, this swarming occurs at
down.
CIRCANNUAL RHYTHM
Every year they fly without fail. Experiments have been carried
out in which the birds have been kept in a controlled
environment, without the chance of a disease or any situation
that might cause them to migrate. But still, the birds showed
migration at the same as they did every year.
In both hamsters and some birds for example the testes are
small on short days (i.e. in winter) but grow dramatically in
long days.
