therefore giving evidence that endogenous pacemakers control our circadian rhythms. He then carried out further research to see if the absence of exogenous zeitgebers would affect his sleep- wake cycle. He spent six months in a cave, with no time cues, but artificial lights. He settled into a sleep wake cycle of around 25 hours. This therefore gives reliability and validity to the view that circadian rhythms are set by endogenous pacemakers, and are not dependent on the exogenous cue of light.

start later so not just teens but teachers can also get more sleep and maybe be healthier too. Teens can also be more awake and alert during class and are more likely to stay awake and not to fall asleep. I think the kids brains need more time to wake up. Teachers and teens will probably also be in a more cheerful mood. Let’s talk about why teens need to be more alert during class. Teens need to be more alert so their minds can take in information.

Medical research found that teenagers have biologically different sleep and wake patterns. It will improve attendance and enrollment rates, reduce sleeping in class, and less student-reported depression (“Sage Journals”). One of the most common side effects of lack of sleep is hallucinations (“Independent”). I believe schools should start later because it gives students a chance to catch up on missed sleep they used staying up all night finishing homework. Studies show that starting school later

great deal of interest in their dreams, have very vivid dreams or their level of anxiety or sleep quality results in people remembering dreams at different amounts each month, say. In general, for all of us dreams are very easily forgotten once we wake up if we don’t consolidate them or in other words if we don’t transfer them from short-term to long term memory immediately upon waking.
