title: [The formation of activity-rest cycles in early ontogeny].
abstract: The cyclic variations of the motor activity consist of many rhythmic components which appear nonsimultaneously in the ontogenesis. The earliest component is the autogenic periodic motility with the duration about one minute which can be observed in rats during first two-three weeks after the birth. From the second week a new type of cyclic activity appears. It can be qualified as a sleep-wakefulness cycle with the duration about several minutes. It is suggested that this cycle is a true novel rhythm which is able to modulate the earliest more frequent periodicity.
