Answer to Question 1

Answer: Depression is accompanied by disorder of sleep in which sleep is shallow and fragmented. REM sleep comes on earlier in the night, and the first half of the night contains more REM periods. Sleep deprivation, either total or just deprivation of REM sleep, can alleviate depression. The suppression or delay of REM sleep appears to be involved in alteration of mood. Drugs that suppress REM sleep are antidepressant and ECT that lifts mood suppresses REM sleep.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
