Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4
Rationale 1: Chemical changes result in less REM sleep.
Rationale 2: Chemical changes result in less NREM sleep in Stages III and IV.
Rationale 3: Chemical changes affect deep and REM sleep.
Rationale 4: Stress is considered by most sleep experts to be the number one cause of short-term sleeping difficulties. A person preoccupied with personal problems might be unable to relax sufficiently to get to sleep. Anxiety increases the norepinephrine blood levels through stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system. This chemical change results in less deep and REM sleep and more stage changes and awakenings.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4
Rationale 1: Stage IV is the deepest stage of sleep, and the sleeper is difficult to arouse.
Rationale 2: Stage III is a deeper stage of sleep, and the sleeper is difficult to arouse.
Rationale 3: Stage II is the stage of light sleep during which body processes continue to slow down. The eyes are generally still, the heart and respiratory rates decrease slightly, and body temperature falls. An individual in stage II requires more intense stimuli than in stage I to awaken, such as touching or shaking.
Rationale 4: Stage I is the stage of very light sleep, and lasts only a few minutes. During this stage, the person feels drowsy and relaxed, her eyes roll from side to side, and her heart and respiratory rates drop slightly. The sleeper can be readily awakened, and might deny that she was sleeping.
