A Correct answer
Explanation

Dolphins use unihemispheric slow-wave sleep, meaning only one half of their brain sleeps at a time while the other half remains active. This allows them to keep one eye open to watch for predators and control their breathing, which is a conscious action for them. Camels, horses, and tigers sleep with both eyes closed.
