Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Circadian rhythms refer to the natural changes in the body's sleep-wake cycle over a 24-hour period. As people age, these rhythms can become disrupted, leading to changes in sleep patterns. Therefore, attending a presentation about circadian rhythms and the elderly would provide insight into this topic. The other options, neuritic plaques, monoamine oxidase inhibitors, and selectivity, are not directly related to sleep patterns in late life.
