Question

In order for a memory to go into storage (i.e., long-term memory), it has to pass through three distinct stages: sensory memory, short-term memory, and ________ memory.A. encoded

B. long-term
C. sensory
D. visual

Answer 1

The answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for us to form store a memory in the long-term-memory category in our brains, it first has to be in the sensory memory, meaning that it has to have an aspect that is either encoded as visual or audio etc. From there it moves to short-term memory where it can only be stored for a really limited time. If we remember and go over it again and again, lastly it gets encoded in our long-term memory where it can be stored as long as we are alive.

I hope this answer helps.
