- REM is primarily initiated by the ______________
- reticular activating system (and just to note that the brain waves are similar to when the person is awake!)
- stage 1 of sleep
- feels groggy, relaxed, easily awakened. last for about 5-10 minutes. It accounts for about 5% of your total sleep time.
- stage 2 of sleep
- eyes are still, body begins to slow down (including brain activity). last for 10-15 minutes
- stage 3 of sleep
- slow wave activity begins to occur at this stage, snoring may occur. difficult to wake. 5-15 minutes are spent in this stage. A young adult spends 8% of sleep time here.
- stage 4 of sleep
- the deepest sleep. the heart rate is about 25% of what it was when your awake, very difficult to wake someone, and if they do they are very confused. some dreaming may occur but is less vivid than in REM. 11% of sleep time is here.
- Stage 5 sleep
- REM sleep. this is important for resorative processes like protein synthesis, cell division and tissue renewal. It happens after about 90 minutes of sleep. The RAS causes the brain to become highly active and resemble that of a fully awake person. vital signs increase, but loss of muscle tone is still present. more spontaneous awakenings occur here than in any other state. you are alert and oriented when awakened from this state.
- REM rebound
- if you loose REM sleep, you will eventually get it. your body will spend more time there to make up for the loss of it.
- describe the sleep cycle (stages in order of which they occur)
- stage 1, 2, 3, 4, then 3, 2, REM, 2, 3, 4, then 3, 2, REM, 2, 3, 4 and so on.
- how many cyles of the sleep cycle can you go trhough a night?
- typically 4-6 cycles a night, each one lasting about 90-100 minutes. The REM may last as long as 60 minutes
