Everything on earth with a central nervous system either sleeps or enters torpor at timed intervals during the earths 24 hour cycle (insects, mammals, reptiles).
Segal's law and the circadian rhythm
Things with a central nervous system need a time out or they short circuit & die. Like a computer, your body & mind need a reset. Part of your mind resets your body while the rest resets/rejuvenates itself.
Interesting fact: Humans live to sleep.
