- Describe different stages of sleep and discuss the NREM vs. REM sleep.?arrow_forwardThere is no single "sleep center" or "waking center" in the brain. Which forebrain arousal center helps to maintain wakefulness by releasing orexin (a.k.a., hypocretin) and maintaining activity in the prefrontal cortex? A) Raphe nuclei B) Lateral hypothalamus (LH) C) Basal forebrain D) Pedunculopontine (PPT) and laterodorsal tegmental (LDT) nucleiarrow_forwardResearch suggests that PGO waves play an important role in generating REM sleep. PGO waves activate all of the following brain regions EXCEPT: A) the occipital lobes. B) the pons. C) the prefrontal cortex. D) the lateral geniculate nucleus.arrow_forward
