English term or phrase: are precisely localised in space
In the living organism, the light that is actually radiated forms only a small proportion of the total light energy produced; most of it is taken up by other molecules where it serves a control function, to trigger or modulate biochemical reactions. The rhythmic release of
this energy, which is capable of a wide range of frequencies—going up even to the megahertz region—is consistent with their role as pacemakers of metabolic processes. Indeed, Voeikov suggests that modulations of frequency rather than amplitude may be the most
important informative factor for cellular regulation. All these complex temporal patterns (which Mae-Wan Ho likens to a symphony) are also precisely localised in space.

disagree  df49f (X): cette phrase n'est pas du français correct ou compréhensible - et le verbe "emplacer" n'existe pas en français - de plus il ne s'agit pas de "forme" mais de localisation dans l'espace
