    During slow wave sleep growth hormones are secreted, this stimulates growth and is therefore important during childhood. It is also an important stage in adulthood as it also enables protein synthesis and cell growth to take place; this is vital to the restoration of bodily tissue as it is very fragile and needs constant renewal. Sassin et al (1969) found that when sleep-waking cycles are reversed by 12 hours such as going to sleep in the morning and waking up at night, the release of GH with sleep is also reversed. This shows that GH release is controlled by neutral mechanisms related to SWS. This study is supported by research from Van Cauter and Plat (1996) they found that the amount of GH released correlates with the amount of SWS. Further and more recent research from Van Cauter (2000) showed that the decline of GH in older aged people has also been associated with reduced SWS. This gives credibility and reliability to Sessin’s research however his research was a field study therefore extraneous variables could not be controlled, this study could also not be repeated as the conditioning would change each time due to environmental factors. But this study is high in ecological validity and internal validity as it met its aims in investigating GH release during SWS. Kruger et al (1985) found that lack of SWS has also been associated with reduced functioning of the immune system; antibodies are regenerated during cell growth and protein synthesis, this also adds…

    There are three major brain divisions. They are the cerebrum, the brainstem, and the cerebellum. The cerebrum contains 40% of the weight of the brain and is founded in the superior part of the brain. This portion of the brain has many functions and lobes which perform certain functions. The frontal lobe is involved with “activating and controlling both fine and complex motor activities.” This involves speech. It is also involved with the executive functions, such as reasoning and rationalizing, among others. The occipital lobe is concerned with vision and processing the information received from the eyes. According to the reading, the “key functions of the parietal lobes include perceiving and integrating sensory and perceptual information,…

    The biggest part of the brain is cerebrum. The cerebrum is the thinking part of the brain and it controls the voluntary muscles, the ones that move when you want them to. When one is thinking hard, trying to solve a math problem or trying to figure out a video game, one is using the cerebrum. (Kidshealth, n.d.) The cerebrum is made up two sides, the left and right hemispheres. The right half of the cerebrum controls the left side of the body and the left side controls the right side. These two are connected by long neuron branches called the Corpus Callosum. Each hemisphere has four lobes; The frontal lobe is associated with reasoning, planning, movement, emotions and problem solving. The parietal lobe is associated with tactile sensory information such as pressure, touch, and pain. The temporal lobe is associated with the…
