Biological Rhythms
- Infradian rhythms are biological rhythms that last more than 24 hours.
- Ultradian rhythms have a shorter period and higher frequency than circadian rhythms.
Sleep and Consciousness
- Microsleeps are brief sidesteps into sleep lasting only seconds.
- Consciousness characterized by being alert, clear, and organized is called normal waking consciousness.
- Altered states of consciousness involve a shift in the quality or pattern of mental activity.

- Situational awareness refers to a person's awareness of everything that is going on at any given moment.
Circadian Rhythms
- Circadian rhythms are biological rhythms that are synced with day and night.
- They have a longer period and lower frequency compared to ultradian rhythms.
