1. Focused mode, and
2. Diffused mode.
The focused mode consists of sustaining your attention on one specific task, such as reading this thread or solving a problem.
The diffused mode consists of letting your mind wander, leaving your brain to make new connections on its own.

Sleeping allows our brain to solidify new connections, get rid of toxins that build up during the day, and be ready for your next study session.
Hope you got your answer ;-)
