Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a gentic disorder which has an impact on numerous physiological systems. PWS affected individuals (specifically babies) experience delayed growth, significant hypotonia (low muscle tone), and feeding issues. It does effect circadian rhythms in mice models.

SNORD116, often referred to as HBII-85, is a non-coding RNA (ncRNA) molecule that contributes to the alteration of other small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs). Unlike the majority of other snoRNAs, SNORD116 is not significantly complementary to ribosomal RNA and is expressed widely in the brain (but not in PWS patients).

According to the studies, SNORD116 cause sleep defect in patients with Prader-Willi syndrome. Same observation was seen in mouse models too. Paternal expression of SNORD116 is thought to be a potential gene for the sleep disruptions/circadian rhythm’s that the majority of PWS sufferers.

To efficiently provide the ideal amount of nitrogen fertilizer, some farmers make use of a "chlorophyll meter" that measures the
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Chlorophyll is a green pigment found in chloroplast in plants. It absorbs sunlight during the process of photosynthesis. It is a chelate molecule. In a chelate molecule a central metal ion forms bonds with a large organic molecule made of carbon, hydrogen and other elements like nitrogen or oxygen.

In chlorophyll, magnesium is the central metal ion and it is bonded to a large organic molecule called as porphyrin. Porphyrin constitutes four nitrogen atoms to which the central magnesium is bonded in square planar arrangement. Since chlorophyll is responsible for the green color of the leaves, more the green color more the chlorophyll content and more is the nitrogen content. Hence, chlorophyll meter measures this green light and finds out if the plant needs more or less nitrogen.
