Abstract
Sleep is a complete cessation of movement and a depression in sensitivity to stimulation. It is initiated by internal bodily functions and not by external forces. A person who is asleep is able to be aroused. There are various levels of sleep, from deep sleep to drowsiness. Eletroencephalography can show the effects of patterns of sleep. Research in sleep and the lack of sleep are ongoing.
