Rita is in REM stage of sleep, which is also known as paradoxical sleep.

Because the muscles relax as the brain and other bodily systems become more active. Increased brain activity causes dreaming, but voluntary muscles become paralyses.

Dreaming is brought on by an increase in brain activity, but as soon as we enter REM sleep, many of our muscles temporarily paralyzed. This is crucial for maintaining our position while we sleep since it stops our legs from springing out when we dream about running, for instance.

However, certain muscles continue to contract. Our breathing muscles continue to work, and the muscles in our eyes cause our eyes to dart fast from side to side.

Why did the Pilgrims and the Puritans establish colonies in the New World?
earnstyle [38]

The Pilgrims and the Puritans established colonies in the New World to practice their religions freely.

The Pilgrim Fathers was an English religious group formed in the late sixteenth century that, being dissatisfied with the political-religious environment in their country, decided to emigrate to the New World in 1620.

The Pilgrim Fathers left the port of Plymouth (England) on the Mayflower ship on August 15, 1620 and, crossing the Atlantic Ocean, intended to reach the Jamestown colony -founded in 1607- but strong storms prevented it by pushing about 800 km further north, to Cape Cod, where they arrived on November 9 of the same year. Shortly after they founded Plymouth that would be the capital of the homonymous colony, which existed until 1691, year in which it was united with the Colony of the bay of Massachusetts forming the Province of the Bay of Massachusetts.

The Pilgrim Fathers were gathered together by the Calvinist puritanical church and took refuge from religious persecutions and from the political instability that existed in Europe.
