Questions and Answers

1.

About how much of our lifetime do we spend sleeping?
- A.
  
  5 years
- B.
  
  11 years
- C.
  
  24 years
- D.
  
  32 years
Correct Answer
C. 24 years

Explanation
On average, a person spends about one-third of their life sleeping. This means that out of the total number of years they live, approximately 24 years are spent sleeping. Sleep is essential for our overall health and well-being as it allows our bodies to rest, repair, and recharge. Therefore, it is not surprising that a significant portion of our lifetime is dedicated to this important activity.

After 14 days, what happened to the cognitive function of participants in the sleep experiment who slept for 6 hours per night?
- A.
  
  They had no change in their cognitive function
- B.
  
  They showed similar reaction times to a person with a blood alcohol concentration of .1%
- C.
  
  Their cognitive function improved
Correct Answer
B. They showed similar reaction times to a person with a blood alcohol concentration of .1%

Explanation
After 14 days of sleeping for only 6 hours per night, the participants in the sleep experiment experienced a decline in their cognitive function. This decline was evident in their reaction times, which became similar to those of a person with a blood alcohol concentration of .1%. This suggests that sleep deprivation negatively affects cognitive function and can impair reaction times, similar to the effects of alcohol consumption.

Brain function decreased for participants in the sleep experiment who slept for 4 or 6 hours per night.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
The explanation for the given correct answer is that the statement indicates that the brain function of participants in the sleep experiment decreased when they slept for only 4 or 6 hours per night. This suggests that insufficient sleep negatively affects brain function.

For those with chronic sleep deprivation, sleepiness/how tired they feel eventually levels off.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Chronic sleep deprivation refers to a consistent lack of sufficient sleep over a prolonged period. When someone experiences chronic sleep deprivation, their sleepiness or fatigue levels may initially increase. However, over time, the body tends to adapt to this state, and the feeling of tiredness eventually levels off. Therefore, the statement "For those with chronic sleep deprivation, sleepiness/how tired they feel eventually levels off" is true.

Research suggests that the average ideal sleep time for humans is:
- A.
  
  5-6 hours
- B.
  
  6-7 hours
- C.
  
  7-8 hours
- D.
  
  8-9 hours
Correct Answer
C. 7-8 hours

Explanation
Research suggests that the average ideal sleep time for humans is 7-8 hours. This range allows for enough restorative sleep to support overall health and well-being. Sleeping within this range helps to promote cognitive function, maintain a strong immune system, and regulate mood and emotions. It also allows for proper physical recovery and helps to prevent chronic health conditions such as cardiovascular disease and obesity. While individual sleep needs may vary, the 7-8 hour range is generally recommended as the optimal sleep duration for most adults.

There is an increased risk of heart disease for those who sleep too little or too much.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Sleep plays a crucial role in maintaining overall health, including heart health. Research has shown that both inadequate and excessive sleep can increase the risk of heart disease. Lack of sleep has been associated with higher blood pressure, increased inflammation, and elevated levels of stress hormones, all of which can contribute to the development of heart disease. On the other hand, excessive sleep has also been linked to an increased risk of heart disease, possibly due to underlying health conditions such as obesity or depression. Therefore, it is important to maintain a balanced sleep routine to reduce the risk of heart disease.

Genetics can play a role in how much sleep a person requires per night.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Genetics can influence the amount of sleep a person needs per night. This means that individuals may have different sleep patterns and requirements based on their genetic makeup. Factors such as the regulation of circadian rhythms, sleep-wake cycles, and sleep quality can be influenced by genetic variations. Therefore, it is true that genetics can play a role in determining the amount of sleep a person needs each night.

Do NYCM Fitbit users average more sleep on weekdays or weekends?
- A.
  
  Weekends
- B.
  
  Weekdays
- C.
  
  They are the same
Correct Answer
A. Weekends

Explanation
NYCM Fitbit users average more sleep on weekends compared to weekdays. This suggests that individuals tend to have a more relaxed sleep schedule on weekends, allowing them to catch up on sleep and compensate for any sleep deprivation during the weekdays. This could be due to factors such as work or school commitments during the weekdays, leading to shorter sleep durations, while weekends provide an opportunity for longer and more restful sleep.
