Answer:

What happens is...

Step-by-step explanation:

Specifically, it allows your neurons, or nerve cells, to reorganize. When you sleep, your brain's glymphatic (waste clearance) system clears out waste from the central nervous system. It removes toxic byproducts from your brain, which build up throughout the day. This allows your brain to work well when you wake up.
