Suppose that an animal's circadian rhythms tell it to eat a meal every 4h. How meals will the animal eat each day.
24/4 = 6 meals/day.
To determine the number of meals the animal will eat each day, we need to calculate the number of meals in a 24-hour period given the circadian rhythm of eating every 4 hours.
To find the number of meals, we divide the total number of hours in a day (24 hours) by the interval between meals (4 hours).
Number of meals = Total number of hours / Interval between meals
Number of meals = 24 hours / 4 hours
Number of meals = 6 meals
Therefore, the animal will eat 6 meals each day based on its circadian rhythm of eating every 4 hours.
