How we sleep
Transection at the midbrain leads to what type of cortical activity.
What is continuous deep sleep
This animal has an arrythmic pattern of sleep
What is an elephant
This stage of infant sleep has features of NREM and REM
What is stage T (Transitional)
This sleep stage is present in birds and mammals but not in nonavian reptiles
What is REM
These animals sleep one hemisphere at a time
What are ceteceans and seals
Neurons in the dorsal raphe release this neurotransmitter.
What is serotonin
This process in the 2 process model = homestatic drive to sleep
What is Process S
Infant NREM sleep is characterized by this pattern
What is Trace Alternant
This animal has the highest percentage of REM sleep of any animal
What is the platypus
Name one of the 4 criteria of the behavioral definition of sleep
What is behavioral quiesence, or sensory detachment or metabolic reduction or circadian/homestatic regulation
Primary sleep active area of the brain that leads to NREM sleep.
What is VLPO
This acculumlates during wake and is responsible for the homeostatic drive for sleep
What is adenosine?
Sleep spindles appear at this age.
What is three months of age
Strengthening synaptic connections of important memories occurs in this stage of sleep
What is N3 sleep
Sleep in bats has this pattern
Crepuscular
This neurotransmitter is released by the Parabrachial Nucleus to promote wake
What is glutamine
Caffeine promotes wake by acting on this receptor
This stage of sleep increases across adulthood
What is N1 sleep
Pruning of unimportant memories occurs in this stage of sleep
What is REM
This aspect of sleep is highly associated with animal size
NREM/REM cycle length
This brainstem nucleus projects down to the spinal cord to promote REM atonia
What is the sublateral dorsal tegmental nucleus
High homeostatic drive increases this stage of sleep
What is N3 sleep
What is delaying
Memories are initially encoded in these 2 structures (name one)
What is the hippocampus or cortex
Dolphins often lack this stage of sleep
What is REM sleep.
