Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During sleep, the parasympathetic division of ANS is more active than the sympathetic division, leading to decreased heart rate, decreased blood pressure, and decreased skeletal muscle tone. The sympathetic division is not stimulated during sleep, as it is responsible for the "fight or flight" response, which is not necessary during restful periods such as sleep. Dreaming during REM sleep is a common occurrence during sleep.
