If you watch a mimosa over a period of time you will see the leaflets open in the morning and close together at night do you think the leaflets would still fold and unfold in a dark closet?

Personally, I would say no or yes! If the mimosa opens because it is light sensitive, then no. But if it has an internal clock and "knows" what time it is, I would say yes.
That is all
