These might seem like simple questions, but I've never gotten a satisfying answer to them:
Why do people need to sleep?
What do you die from if you die from "lack of sleep" and what causes it?
Is any other organ involved in sleep except for the brain (independently or unregulated by the brain)?

regenerate what? why would organs need to "sleep"?

there is still this question: what do you die from when you die from "lack of sleep"?
