Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

REM (rapid eye movement) sleep is active with frequent eye movements and muscle jerks. It is believed to be important for normal brain activity, including neural development and brain plasticity. About eight in sixteen hours of REM sleep occur in infants, whose brains are actively developing, but only two in seven in adults.
