Tom awoke from the strangest dream. He remembers vivid emotions, sights, and even smells, but the content of the dream was very scattered and illogical. Why might this be so?
(a) Frontal cortices are somewhat deactivated during sleep, which contributes to illogical aspects of dreaming.
(b) Neurons were randomly firing, and Tom's sleeping mind attempted to make sense of this chaotic neural activity.
(c) The limbic regions of the brain are active during sleep, which could be the source of the emotional content in Tom's dream.
(d) All of the options are correct.
