MAGNETIC SENSORS. “Cryptochromes (from the Greek κρυπτός χρώμα, “hidden colour”) are a class of flavoproteins that are sensitive to blue light. They are found in plants and animals. Cryptochromes are involved in the circadian rhythms of plants and animals, and possibly also in the sensing of magnetic fields in a number of species.”
