Not so well. In a way surprisingly similar to when you are drunk. I highly recommend Counting Sheep, By: Paul Martin for more on this subject. Reaction time is impaired. You are more temperamental. You may make reckless decisions more often than were you not tired. Basically nothing goods from being more tired. Learning is impaired, and a lack of sleep prevents learning from occurring.
AnswerActually, newer research (i.e. past 5-10 years) indicates that the degree to which fatigue affects your cognitive abilities is rather small. Sleep deprivation's biggest effect is on your mood, making you cranky and thus changing your appraisal of situations and your abilities. However, the brain is pretty determined to make you sleep more than you need (in contradication to older, poorly executed studies, Adults are healthiest getting about 6 hours of sleep a night, while the brain tries to force you into eight or more) so it is dangerous to do high-risk activities (i.e. driving) because you have to divert energy to fighting this urge to sleep. However, if you are tired and anxious because of getting 5-6 hours of sleep a night, try to stop worrying about it and you will be less tired. After reading these studies, I changed my sleeping patterns and have felt great!We close our eyes when we sleep to protect them and help our brain relax and rest. This helps us fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.
The blue whale's brain is much larger and more complex than a human's brain. It is the largest brain of any animal on Earth, but its structure and functions are different from a human's brain.
Pituitary gland, which is part of the human brain.
There are no bones in the human brain. The human skull protects the brain, which is made up of soft tissue.
the human brain is 10cm long and 5cm in height. I hope that helps
Even when your asleep your brain is still at work. When we fall asleep we go through different stages. Some scientist think that when you fall asleep the brain sorts information it has been receiving during the day. Some information gets rid of and some gets filled in your memories. :)
it is most active when your asleep because it goes over what you did, learned, and saw.
human brain. seeing as a human only has one brain.
False
Usually you dream. You're brain is more active when it's asleep than it ever is when you're awake.
Not necessarily. The brain is constantly working regardless of whether you're awake or asleep. Some areas, however, will be more active when sleep and some when you're awake.
Because you are sleeping
it is a memory or a vision but most of the time it is an illusion
The Human Brain Weighs More Than The Human Lung.
when you have nightmares it is just the brain playing tricks on you perhaps off something you thought off before you fell asleep
the human brain can give us lot of information
No, the brain continues to produce electrical activity while a person is asleep. In fact, different stages of sleep are associated with distinct patterns of brain wave activity that can be measured using an electroencephalogram (EEG).
