Compare slow wave and paradoxical sleep
What will be an ideal response?
Slow wave sleep shows slow frequency waves on an EEG recording. A person in slow wave sleep shows considerable movement and shifting, does not dream, and is easily aroused. Slow wave sleep occurs 80% of the sleeping time and can be divided into four separate, progressive stages. Paradoxical sleep shows an EEG similar to that of an awake person. A person in paradoxical sleep does not show much movement, can have a dream state, and is hard to arouse. Paradoxical sleep occurs 20% of the sleeping time and is characterized by rapid eye movements (REM).
