Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Does the disconnected brain stem support rapid eye movement sleep rebound following selective deprivation?
Answer: Rebound in rapid eye movement sleep after deprivation cannot be sustained by the brain stem alone; in contrast, rapid eye movement sleep pressure persisted in the decerebrate cat, demonstrating that this process does not depend on descending forebrain influences. This indicates that rebound and pressure are 2 different components of the recovery process after rapid eye movement sleep deprivation and that, as such, are likely controlled by different mechanisms.
Output (English): no
