Expert Solution
Step 1: Introducing Sleep Stages

There are different stages of sleep, which are all together called sleep stages. Brain activity, eye movements, and muscle tone change in different ways during these times. REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep and non-REM sleep are the two main types of sleep. There are three more states of non-REM sleep, which are called N1, N2, and N3. A normal night's sleep goes through these steps several times. They are very important to the sleep cycle. As you go through each stage, you'll experience different things, such as healing processes, memory consolidation and dreams.
