Why do we YAWN ?

we do yawn. But why do we yawn?

A theory says that when we sleep our body metabolic rates go down. so we need less oxygen. But when we feel sleepy or tired, this happens we take in less oxygen but our body metabolic rates are still high so our body automatically tries to take in more oxygen. This is through Yawn. This is an involuntary action.
