Sleep Disorders Matt Barnett Insomnia: Insomnia is the inability to get sufficient sleep. Insomnia can also include constant interruption in sleep, like waking up frequently throughout the night. It can be transient (only a few nights), short-term (2-4 weeks), or chronic (most nights for a period of over a month). There are a few treatment options however. Many patients will use sleeping pills to help them fall and stay asleep. Many behavioral techniques can be used to combat insomnia as well, like utilizing relaxation. Because of the causes of insomnia, like anxiety, it may be more beneficial to treat the symptoms than the effects.

Performance task #3 1. Hypothesis: If you fertilize the ocean with iron then, it will help reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide levels. 2. Step-by-Step procedure: 1. Dissolve 7 metric tons of iron sulfate in acidic sea water.?? 2. Spew the solution into a ships propeller wash on a specific date covering a circular patch in the eddy. 3. Cover in iron in a circular path for 167 square km (0.01 grams per square meter. ? 4. Monitor the fate of the patch, off and on for 5 weeks while adding supplemental iron fertilizer after every 2 weeks to keep concentrations high enough to promote growth. ?? 5. Record the microscopic life bloomed on a data table.
