Answer:

Sleep.

Awaken.

Explanation:

The time and duration of circadian rhythms  are regulated  by the interactions of PER(period) and TIM(timeless) genes and their proteins. The TIM proteins  binds with PER- proteins and the two entered the cell nucleus to set up  circadian rhythms.

At midday the two genes becomes active,and their DNAs transcribed to form PER-RNA, and TIM -RNA. These RNAs accumulated in the cell nucleus   over some hours.

At dusk(night) the  amount  of these  RNAs reached highest levels.and are translated  to the PER and TIM -proteins, which bonded together and moved into the  cells nucleus causing  sleep in the animals.

Hours to dawn,(morning) the concentration of the two proteins exceeded their limit, and signals is sent to their genes to stop transcription, thus the protein(PER  and TIM) synthesis is stopped.

At almost dawn, the PER and TIM proteins disintegrates, the cycle begins again and the individual is awake.

iris [78.8K]

Sociologists argue that the division of the human population into two distinctive and  mutually exclusive categories, male and female, is best understood as a biological fact.

The division into these two major categories as male or female is mainly due to the biological and the physiological characteristics produced in both male and female.

Although in some cases, it may be argued that they are not mutually exclusive as there are some who have both.

Nevertheless, the above mentioned characteristics are just used to differentiate between a male and a female in humans and as well an individual self-concept of being a male or a female.
