Which of the following is NOT a reason why humans sleep? Sleep helps to restore and repair brain tissue.

Sleep restores and rebuilds memories.

Sleep provides a psychic safety valve to discharge unacceptable feelings.

Answer and Explanation:

The answer is the second answer choice. This is because we humans can rebuild or build memories during the day, it doesn't have to happen via sleep.

The first answer choice IS a reason because you aren't working your brain as hard, so your brain has time to heal. A mouse study suggests that sleep helps restore the brain by flushing out toxins that build up during waking hours.

The third answer choice IS a reason because of the idea of Wish Fulfillment: Sigmund Freud suggested that dreams provide a psychic safety valve to discharge unacceptable feelings. The dream's manifest (apparent) content may also have symbolic meanings (latent content) that signify our unacceptable feelings.

The forth answer choice IS a reason because of the idea of Cognitive Development: Some researchers argue that we dream as a part of brain maturation and cognitive development.
