How can you use “oscillators” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Eukaryotic organisms evolved clocks as an adaptation to geophysical cycles such as day and night or high and low tides or the passing seasons [ 1 ] . These clocks are oscillators that control timing in a broad range of processes such as rhythms in gene expression [ 2 ] , and navigational mechanisms for migratory flight [ 3 ] . Studies on the nature of such clocks - whether at the level of gene expression or behavior - most often rely on the measurement of rhythmic processes by repeated sampling over time.
