    How to use "Circadian" in context?

    The word "circadian" comes from the Latin words "circa" (around) and "dia" (day), meaning "about a day." Circadian rhythms are the patterns of daily, monthly, and yearly events that are driven by the Earth's natural sunlight and darkness. The three main types of circadian rhythms are: biological, light/dark, and dusk-dawn. Biological rhythms involve rhythms in human and other living cells, and light/dark rhythms involve rhythms in animals and plants. Dusk-dawn rhythms involve rhythms in humans and other animals that are affected by the natural light and dark cycles.
