Our body temperature is, like many rhythms, closely aligned around the 24-hour clock to fluctuate in set patterns -- we call these patterns circadian rhythms, from the Latin, circa, meaning around and diem, meaning day.
The period length of the clock-generated rhythms is not precisely 24 h and so they are termed circadian (circa = around, diem = one day).
These rhythms are distinguished by their period length with circadian (lat: circa diem, around a day) rhythms displaying a τ of approximately 24 hours that evolved in adaptation to the daily rotation of the earth around its axis.
