Scientists explained that while awake, the connections between neurons get stronger and more complex, but if the activity continued without breaks, it would be 'energetically unsustainable.'
"Too many active connections between brain cells could prevent new connections from being made the following day," said Jason Rihel from the University College London, UK, and the lead author of the study published in the journal 'Nature'.
