Skyla Smith is going camping with her mom and dad. She asks if her friend Jessica can come along. Jessica's parents agree but remain somewhat concerned. They inform the Smiths that Jessica has somnambulism. Skyla's mom, who happens to be a psychologist, understands that this means
A) Jessica talks in her sleep.
Incorrect. That would be somniloquy.
B) Jessica experiences periods of time when she stops breathing while sleeping.
C) Jessica may fall asleep out of the blue with no apparent reason.
D) Jessica walks in her sleep.
Correct. Somnambulism is the proper term for sleepwalking.
E) Jessica may wake up in the middle of the night with a piercing scream but then shortly return to sleep.
