Par exemple, notre horloge biologique a un cycle de vingt-cinq heures lorsqu'elle est complètement isolée de toute variation de lumière, de repas, etc. Dès qu'on l'expose à la lumière, elle est commandée par la journée de vingt-quatre heures et devient «bloquée en phase» sur cette fréquence. Mais il suffit d’un voyage transatlantique pour détruire ce blocage de phase. Nos propres cœurs battent par blocage de phase de cellules individuelles et leurs battements tendent à s’harmoniser après un certain temps passé en groupe fermé. 2, record 2, French, - blocage%20de%20phase
