The circadian rhythm is a biorhythm based on the day-night pattern in a 24-hour cycle.A person's circadian rhythm is regulated by a cluster of cells in the hypothalamus of the brainstem that respond to changing levels of light.A major factor in regulating sleep is the amount of light received through the eyes-not the typical amount of sleep the person has within a 24-hour period.The autonomic nervous system (rather than central nervous system)controls the involuntary processes of the body,such as sleep,digestion,immune function,and so on.
