Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -During the first stage of sleep you are just drifting off; your eyelids are heavy and your head starts to drop. During this drowsy period, you are easily awoken and your brain is still quite active.
Detailed explanation-2: -(D) REM sleep is also known as paradoxical sleep.

During this stage your body is physiologically aroused, but your voluntary muscles are paralyzed.
