Answer 1

C. Exposing participants to a list of color names, then seeing if they complete the word stem "GRE__" as "GREEN."

Step-by-step explanation:

Implicit memories are the memories that help us to complete a task without the awareness of a previous experience.

Here, when the word GRE is exposed if a person has good implicit memory then without thinking consciously the blank gets filled by the letters EEN completing. We have not faced this exact situation before but we implicitly know what comes after GRE.

Hence, this is a good test for implicit memory.
