People who chronically lose sleep show measurable declines in attention and emotional control." The author most likely included the final sentence in order to:

introduce a new topic unrelated to the rest of the paragraph. provide evidence of what happens when the brain's sleep functions are disrupted. contradict the claim that sleep is an active process. explain how to treat insomnia effectively.
