a: suprachiasmatic nucleus ~
b: master clock

What:

"This suprachiasmatic nucleus is like the master clock. It's sort of like the conductor in an orchestra. There are clocks, it turns out, in many other tissues in the body, including other parts of the brain, but everybody comes under the control of the suprachiasmatic nucleus."
