Line 86:

A dream is a conscious experience that occurs during sleep. Although it may happen in any sleep phase, it prevails during the desynchronized phase (REM type). Like any information consciously identified, a dream triggers a specific behavior, that we call an oneiric behavior. It comprises two types of identifiable manifestations:

a) Motor: These components are usually weak and poorly expressed movements during a dream.

'''a) Motor:''' These components are usually weak and poorly expressed movements during a dream.

'''b) Vegetative:''' Phasic increases heart rate, blood pressure, respiration, pupillary diameter, and metabolic adjustments, which are expressed more consistently during a dream, as they are during attentive wakefulness.
