You yawn when you are sleepy because that is when you take in the least oxygen. Your body takes in more oxygen when you are yawning, which explains the reason to why you take in air when you yawn.
Yawning is just the brain's way of getting oxygen when it doesn't have enough. This happens more often when you're sleepy, most likely because you're breathing is a little more depressed.
Because when you get sleepy your body goes into a sleep mode and takes in less air but since your awake and need more air you yawn to get 'emergency' air. Hope that helped

They are contagious in the sense that other people may start laughing or yawning when they see you doing it, but they are not diseases. I thought that because contagious is derived from the Latin "tangere" - to touch, that both laughing and yawning were infectious. I'm not 100% sure though and would welcome a more knowledgeable answer.
You can't stop yawning because when you yawn your body is trying to get more oxygen into you body to try and stay awake. If you are yawning constantly your body is trying to keep you awake, the longer you stay awake, the more you will yawn.
