New insight into the circadian clock of Drosophila melanogaster. The higher temperatures the higher the temperature, the more rapid the physiological processes happen. However, there's a lone exception known as the circadian clock that regulates the sleep-wake cycles in living things. The most interesting question for researchers is why the internal clock functions in a way that is almost constant regardless of fluctuations in temperature. This is a phenomenon referred to as “temperature compensation”. Studies have shown that various molecular mechanisms play a role in this. A biologists' team, led by prof. Ralf Stanewsky from the University of Munster (Germany)…
