Rapid plant movement

senses slam you awake. Whew! It was just a dream! We all dream at some point, while some of us may dream less frequently or become unable to remember our dreams, we all do so. I will address the scientific term for dreaming, which is REM, or Rapid Eye Movement, the fifth and final phase of sleep (“What is REM Sleep?”). We as humans experience dreams during REM sleeping for several reasons, influenced by psychological and physiological factors, in order to clear the mind, profess suppressed…

Dreaming occurs 3-6 times every night and each dream lasts about 5-20 minutes. When dreamers are asleep they follow a ninety minute cycle, there are 5 stages of this cycle, two stages of light sleep, two stages of deep sleep, and one stage of rapid eye movement or REM. (Young 1) While dreaming your brain goes through recent memories and sorts them out, dreaming is not a necessity to your brain sorting through memories but it does help your brain (Young 1). This means that your brain is…

Yes Antonia would agree with this definition. if one is dissolved into something particular in their style , one may see that his/her abilities comes to them more natural than sleep . otherwise by saying that , just like playing basketball one may not have to work as hard as the other in one particular drill. or another may shoot better than the other , it comes natural to them just as sleep will come to a working man that kills hisself to put food on the table . Perhaps we feel like that when…

Martin, 2005). As the archipelago is within close proximity of the Pacific Ocean, the climate is a cool temperate, oceanic, humid to perhumid type that is largely moderated by movement of moist air masses off the Pacific Ocean (Banner et al, 2014). This climate gives rise to a temperate rainforest biome, which results in a plant…

Why Do We Dream? Every night, dreams flow through the human mind. Dreams of fast paced adventure, dreams of vivid fantasies, and even dreams of a dark, creepy fears. Scientists yearn to know more about this phenomenon, something that humans have been doing since their very existence. Although people don’t know exactly why we dream, some people think it’s for religious reasons, while others think that it’s for scientific purposes. There are a few theories behind dreaming. One theory explains…

Dreams are a very controversial subject in psychology. Psychologists have not come to agreement on what dreams may signify, mean, or what their purpose might be, however, they do have several theories. The three most popular dream theories are psychoanalytic, activation-synthesis, and information processing (White, 2017). Each theory is unique and offers different ways of looking at the way the brain works. Sigmund Freud wrote the book The Interpretation of Dreams in 1900 and created the…

What is a dream? The scientific definition of a dream is when there is a very small amount of brain activity and there is no sense of self-awareness. Most dreaming occurs in the REM (rapid eye movement) stage. This is the stage during which accelerated respiration and heart rate, muscle relaxation, and increased brain activity occurs. This stage is also called paradoxical sleep. During a dream, the dreamer experiences an incredibly lifelike ordeal, and the shutting down of the self-awareness…

Have you ever thought about where dreams come from? We have all been there in the middle of the night, where a dream seems so real that you wake up thinking you have actually experienced it. Some people think dreams happen because we are recalling events that occurred earlier in the day, or maybe because we are able to have visions from the future, but do we really know their main origin? Aristotle once defined dreams as a perceptionless state where our senses of our outside stimulus are shut…

Scientists have argued whether or not dreams have a true purpose when it comes to humans. In chapter four of, “The Storytelling Animal,” Jonathan Gottschall argues that indeed dreams do have a true function. However, he also claims that “a function for dreams or pretend play or fiction doesn’t mean that we’ve identified the function.” (Page 86). I agree with Gottshchall pertaining to his outlook on dreams having a purpose. Through his varied research, Gottschall concludes that dreams are simply…

First, I am going to start out with the definition of Psychology. Psychology is the scientific study of the human mind and its functions. Speaking of the human mind and its functions, dreams, what are they? Dreams are a series of thoughts, images, and sensations occurring in a person’s mind during sleep. Dreams are very mysterious, they are the “royal road to… the unconscious,” a famed psychologist once said (Sigmund Freud). Still, what is the meaning behind dreams? Some believe that dreams have…
