Ticker governing how your ticker ticks? (10,5)
I believe the answer is:
biological clock
'governing how your ticker ticks?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'ticker' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'ticker' could be 'clock' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'clock' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'biological' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for biological clock that I've seen before include "Innate mechanism" , "Vital timer" .)
