Question

________ is a disorder in which breathing briefly stops during sleep, causing the person to choke, gasp, and momentarily awaken.

Answer 1

Answer: Sleep Apnea

Explanation: Sleep apnea is a serious sleep disorder that occurs when a person's breathing is interrupted during sleep. People with untreated sleep apnea stop breathing repeatedly during their sleep, sometimes hundreds of times. This means the brain -- and the rest of the body -- may not get enough oxygen.
