Neurological DisordersLesson 4.1
What is sleep?
![Page 3: Unit 4: How do our neurons work together to control behaviors?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081420/568163f8550346895dd58dad/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Do Now: What do you know about sleep?
With a partner, determine if the following statements are true or false.
1. You will die if you don’t get enough sleep. 2. You sleep so your body can repair itself from the
day’s activities.3. You can’t perform properly if you don’t get
enough sleep.4. When you’re asleep, your brain is less active
than when you’re awake.

1. You will die if you don’t get enough sleep.
True. Rats who are deprived of sleep die within a couple of weeks.

2. You sleep so your body can repair itself from the day’s activities.
False. There is no evidence that more repair occurs during sleep than during relaxed wakefulness.

3. You can’t perform properly if you don’t get enough sleep.
True. Being sleep deprived impairs performance to the same extent as being drunk.

4. When you’re asleep, your brain is less active than when you’re awake.
False. Your brain is incredibly active during sleep.

You can measure the brain’s activity during sleep with an EEG.EEG – Electroencephalogram

The EEG measures activity between electrodes

The EEG records activity in the form of waves
• When talking about a wave:
– What is frequency?
– What is amplitude?A
B
Amplitude
Frequency

What do the brainwaves signify?
High frequency, low amplitude
Medium frequency, medium amplitude
Low frequency, high amplitude
High frequency, high amplitude
Mentally alertwith eyes open
Awake with eyes closed
Drowsiness & sleep
Epilepsy

The EEG detects multiple stages of sleep
Awake
Stage 1
Stage 2
Stage 3
Stage 4
Stage 5
Non rapid eye movement
(NREM)
Rapid eye movement

Two Types of Sleep
• Non rapid eye movement (NREM)– The sleeper is relatively still– Decrease in heart rate, respiration and blood pressure– The eyes are pointed down and move slowly
• Rapid eye movement (REM)– Muscle paralysis occurs (other than muscles that control
breathing and eye movements)– Variable heart rate, respiration, and blood pressure– The eyes move back and forth rapidly– Most dreaming occurs
