Vanessa and her friends meet each other every Sunday for brunch, and they love talking about the dreams they have experienced. Vanessa often dreams about a fire alarm going off, which she finds very distressing, so she asks the group their opinion about why they think she has been having this dream. Rachel is part of the same friend group, but dislikes the conversations about dreams because she rarely dreams and seldom remembers her dreams the following day.
-Rachel spends more time in _____ sleep than her friends.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

NREM (non-REM) sleep is the stage of sleep that occurs before REM sleep, and it is characterized by a slower brain wave activity. This stage of sleep is also known as deep sleep, and it is less likely to have vivid dreams that can be remembered the next day. Rachel's inability to remember her dreams suggests that she spends more time in NREM sleep than her friends who could remember their dreams.
