Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: in the early morning hours before dawn and in the early hours of the afternoon.
Your body clock has two periods of greater sleepiness. One is the pre-dawn hours, when your body expects to be asleep, with a peak between 3 and 5 in the morning. The other comes after lunch, in the early afternoon, from 2 to 4. The middle of the morning is not one of those periods.
