Body Clock Rhythms and Their Role in Growth and Development

AI simplified

Abstract

Circadian clocks are integral to understanding early developmental processes in animals.

  • The emergence of light-regulated circadian clocks during development is not well defined.
  • Circadian clocks may play a role in regulating early developmental processes.
  • Drosophila and vertebrates serve as primary models for studying the interaction between circadian rhythms and development.
  • Understanding the timing cues from the environment could improve knowledge of developmental coordination.
