A research participant agrees to live in a specially designed laboratory environment for several weeks. The room has no windows, no clocks, and is kept under constant, dim light. Based on the known function of the brain's primary biological clock, what is the most likely outcome for the participant's sleep-wake cycle?

A research participant is placed in a specially designed room with no windows and is exposed only to constant, dim light for several weeks. Based on the function of the brain's primary biological clock, what is the most likely outcome for their internal daily cycles, such as body temperature and feelings of sleepiness?
