Question

Mrs. Candies notices that her husband stops breathing in his sleep, awakens slightly to gulp in the air, and then goes back to sleep. This happens several times a night. Mr. Candies is displaying which of the following sleep disorders?

Answer 1

Sleep Apnea

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe it is Sleep Apnea due to one of the "symptoms" of it being, "Observed episodes of stopped breathing during sleep".

familydoctor.org also says that, "People who have sleep apnea stop breathing for 10 to 30 seconds at a time while they are sleeping. These short stops in breathing can happen up to 400 times every night."
