Answer:the part of the brain that has most likely been damaged in this experiment is the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) found in the hypothalamus of the brain.

Explanation:

circadian rhythms are behavioural changes that respond to light and darkness in an organisms environment. The sleep-inducing wake cycle is a good example of a circadian rhythm. In the experiment, the disruption of the mouse SCN led to development of imbalances in the circadian rhythm of sleep and wake cycle leading to falling asleep and waking up at random times of the day and night. I hope this helps. Thanks
