Im really sleepy. I very much want to get all of my work done as soon as possible so that I can go to bed. but I just thought I would post before I forgot. so.. um..
so I was wondering. does anyone know what is happening neurologically when you sleep? Im very curious as to why people get tired, why they lose cognitive function without sleep, and why people seem to need a consistent amount every night. also why do some animals need more sleep than others? Im told that cats sleep more than they are awake, and Ive also heard that giraffes only sleep 2 hours a day. (although Ive read more recent estimations put this number closer to 4 hours.) I need answers.
