Re: Human sleep and recovery
One possible explanation for sleep is connected to the brain's restoring its neurons. When we are awake the neurons fire at a higher rate. Although the neuron recover, the constant firing may alter branching processes to reflect a net lowering of neuron potential. One can see how behavior gets affected without sleep. With sleep the neurons are not firing as much and are able to regain potential via branching. When we awaken the next day, one begins the day with a more integrated brain.
