What is the effect of small amounts of sleep on cognitive ability? O most people are not significantly affected by sleep deprivation. O because the brain works harder when sleep deprived, we perform better. O because the prefrontal cortex shuts down, we can't learn very well. learning is significantly impaired by sleep deprivation.

Recent studies indicate that the brain takes mini naps when a person is sleep deprived. What role does sleep play in restoring one's mind? Consider the cognitive changes that a person experiences when sleep deprived. What is it about non-insomniacs that seems to contradict what most believe about the role of sleep? What is REM sleep, and what role does it play in memory consolidation? Is the hippocampus, a structure known to play a role in the consolidation of memories, active during REM sleep? Might REM-related dreams be related to one's actual experiences? Why does the amount of time that infants spend sleeping differ from adults? Does REM sleep play a role in the neural development of a young brain? Compare the amount of time people spend in sleep stages over a lifetime. How does slow-wave sleep change over the lifespan?
