Answer:

While being awake means that one has the knowledge and is capable of reasoning, dreaming refers to the state of believing in mere appearances, meaning that one can form an opinion but doesn´t demonstrate knowledge.

Explanation:

In Plato's Republic, the philosopher´s idea that knowledge can´t be acquired by mere perception is illustrated through Socrates' differentiation of dreaming and being awake as two separate states of mind.
