Since the 1950s, scientists have known that rapid eye movement, or REM, occurs when someone is sleeping.Previous studies attempting to determine the meaning of these eye movements have been unsuccessful in part because these studies relied on human subjects recalling the content of their dreams. A recent study by physiologists Yuta Senzai and Massimo Scanziani has avoided this issue by studying dreaming mice instead. Their results suggest that REM is correlated to changes in direction during the dream.Which choice best describes the function of the second sentence in the overall structure of the text?*A.

Dialogue between individuals who are dreaming and awake seems like an unlikely prospect, but Northwestern University researcher Karen Konkoly and an experiment _______ achieved exactly this type of connection in 2021. Mazurek entered a state of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep; according to readings of his brain activity during REM dreaming, he could solve simple math problems posed by Konkoly.21Mark for ReviewCross out answer choices you think are wrong.ABCWhich choice completes the text so that it conforms to the conventions of Standard English?Aparticipant, Christopher MazurekBparticipant, Christopher Mazurek,Cparticipant Christopher MazurekDparticipant Christopher Mazurek,

Before memories have been consolidated they are considered "labile," or unstable and easily altered.  Sleep is theorized to be essential to the process of memory consolidation, though the mechanisms for this are still under investigation.  Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep has long been assumed to be the sleep stage most important for overall memory consolidation, but recent research suggests that different types of memory may be consolidated during different sleep stages.  Procedural memories appear to be primarily consolidated during REM sleep while declarative memories appear to be primarily consolidated during slow-wave sleep (SWS).  Sleep duration, sleep regularity, and timing of sleep all contribute to the proportions of REM and SWS, so these factors also play an important role in memory consolidation processes.An experiment was performed at a large state university to investigate the relationship between sleep and learning in college students.  Researchers screened potential participants with a sleep habits questionnaire.  Those who reported having a regular sleep schedule were included in the study (N = 100) and given a vocabulary knowledge pretest.  Participants were then randomly assigned to 1 of 4 experimental groups, each containing 25 students.  During the learning phase (L), each student was asked to memorize a set of 10 common toy objects (eg, car, ball, stuffed animal, blocks) and 10 vocabulary definitions that the student had labeled as "unknown" during the pretest.  Images of the toy objects were presented in a sequence, one at a time, for 5 seconds each; the 10 vocabulary definitions were listed on a sheet that students were allowed to study for 10 minutes.  During the testing phase (T), students were asked to recall the objects in any order and define the vocabulary words (Figure 1).Figure 1  Experimental design for each of the 4 groupsResults were reported as the average recall accuracy for the objects and vocabulary definitions, by group (Table 1).  Participants were then given a survey about the techniques they used when attempting to remember the toy objects and vocabulary definitions.  Some students reported associating the definitions and objects with one another.  For instance, one student reported that she related the words "plucky" (meaning brave) and "tocsin" (meaning an alarm) to an image of a toy fire truck, making it easier to recall the toy object and both associated vocabulary definitions.Table 1  Average Recall Accuracy, per GroupGroups Average object recall accuracy (%) Average vocabulary recall accuracy (%)I 52 42II 69 60III 44 35IV 64 52 Question 23In this study, the vocabulary recall task most directly assessed which of the following types of memory?A.ImplicitB.SemanticC.Short-termD.Working
