Ok, in your brian their is a section that controls sleep, this part of you brian is called your cirybril (not right spelling) cortex. it also governs alot of other functions. It will know when to let you aleep due to cercadian (check spelling) rythms. When you get used to sleeping at a certain time of day your cortex is used to those rythms. When you go overseas then the rythms hav stayed the same while the time of day has changed and so it takes a while for your cortex to get used to that, therefore causing jet lag. Yours truly Marc Kruger P.S: I am 15, are you not entertained!
Animals that are nocturnal, such as owls, bats, and possums, typically sleep during the daytime. These animals have adapted to be more active at night when it is cooler and there is less competition for resources. Some diurnal animals, like cats and dogs, also take short naps throughout the day.
Some factors influencing an animal's adaptation to a nocturnal lifestyle include temperature and predation. Firstly, in hot areas, animals may choose to come out at night to avoid strong heat from the sun during the day and to minimize water lost through sweating and evapouration (especially in dry climates). Secondly, animals may choose to come out at night in order to evade predators that hunt under daylight. Also, in special cases, animals could be nocturnal because the food that they eat are most abundantly available at night.
An animal that sleeps during the day and is active at night is called nocturnal. Examples include most rodents, most bats, and the big cats. An animal that is most active around dawn or dusk is crepuscular.
The same reason why humans and other animals sleep.
Most animals do sleep but different animals require different amounts of sleep, sometimes they are either up all day or up all night.
== == Animals that SLEEP at night (and are awake in the DAY) are called DIURNAL. Animals that are awake at night and sleep during the day are NOCTURNAL. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------
some animals hunt food and others sleep. other animals hunt at night and sleep in the DAY
Nocturnal animals: bats, some mice, ect.
Animals who sleep during the day and are awake at night are called nocturnals.
because some animals are noturnal, for example hamsters, foxes and badgers and noctural because they sleep during the day and they are awake at night
Animals sleep in trees and it depends on what type of animal it is.
Diurnal animals such as mockingbirds and squirrels sleep at night. Nocturnal animals such as owls and bats sleep during the day.
Diurnal animals are active during the day and sleep at night. Some examples of diurnal animals include squirrels, birds, and butterflies. These animals are not nocturnal, which means they are not active at night.
