Detailed explanation-1: -REM rebound behavior refers to the increased frequency, depth, and intensity of rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep following sleep deprivation or significant stressors. This activity describes the neurophysiology and hormonal processes the contribute to the phenomenon of REM rebound.
Detailed explanation-2: -Getting an unusually large amount of REM sleep in a given night is often an indication that you are sleep deprived. Your body routinely gets most of its REM sleep later in the night, during the final hours that you are asleep.
Detailed explanation-3: -REM deprivation increases basal arousal and enhances drive-related behaviors like hyperphagia. It also affects physiological, psychological process as well as neurotransmitter levels. The mechanisms behind these changes are not fully understood.
Detailed explanation-4: -Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is called paradoxical sleep because it involves seemingly contradictory states of an active mind and a sleeping body.
Detailed explanation-5: -What Happens if You Don’t Get Enough REM Sleep? Multiple studies of both humans and animals suggest that being deprived of REM sleep interferes with memory formation. However, memory problems associated with a loss of REM sleep could be due to overall sleep disruption, since those often occur together.
