Studies say that high levels of adenosine leads to sleepiness. According to the two process model of sleep regulation the timing and structure of sleep are determined by the interaction of a homeostatic and a circadian process. The original qualitative model was elaborated to quantitative versions that included the ultradian dynamics of sleep in relation to the non rem-rem sleep cycle. The time course of eeg slow wave activity is the major marker of non rem sleep homeostasis as well as daytime alertness were simulated successfully for a considerable number of experimental protocols.

    There are four different stages of sleep and they are number from one to four. Stage one EEG is the only stage that has a different reaction when we are first falling asleep and then when we return to this stage after falling asleep. When falling asleep stage one is called initial stage one EEG when we return to this stage throughout the night after falling asleep it is then called emergent stage one EEG. When we fall asleep we start at stage one then through all the stages to stage four than back down to stage one (emergent stage one) and we go through this cycle all night. Stage one is also when we experience REM, which is named so because of the rapid eye movement that only occurs during this stage of sleep. We also dream during REM sleep.
