24
what is the type of wave like in alpha
high frequency medium ampplitude
25
what is the type of awakenes in beta
aleet awake state,
26
what type of waves is associated with beat
very high frequency and low amplitude
27
what is theta associated with
early sleep, low frequency waves which can vary enormously in amplitude
28
what is delta associated with
deep sleep,
29
what type of waves seen in delta
low freqyc but hgih amplitude
30
how does eeg chagne with eyes shut
when eyes close, freqyc redues but amplidue increase
31
why is the amplitude in a high latern state lower than a relxte state
as there is ltos of things going on ni a high alter state, cerin waveleng cancer out other one, making itlook like it is lower freqeucny
32
what is stage 1 of the sleep cycle
slow wav,non reme lseep, veyr slow eye moements, easlty arrouse, low freequeyc theta waves - with high amplitude
33
what is stage 2 sleep cycle
no eye movements frequncy slows more htan 1 sleep spindles present, of rapid wave births
34
what is stage 3 on a sleep cyle
high amplide , very slow delta waves with short epieso of faster waves, less spinal fiber activity
35
what is stadge 4 on a slee cyle
only delta waves
36
what stages are deep sleep
3 and 4
37
can you go back to stage 1
no , only 2,3,4 and rem in sleep, as 1 is only present when falling alsep for first time
38
what is rem
rapid eye movemen, wher there is low amplie , high frequency
39
when does deep sleep normally occur
