Question

Will has been to the zoo many times, usually with his family but also once on a school field trip. When Will tries to remember the field trip, his recollection is

a. likely to include elements imported from memories of other zoo trips
b. unlikely to be influenced by schematic knowledge
c. likely to be highly accurate in its details
d. unlikely to include much perceptual information

Answer 1

Will's recollection of the school field trip to the zoo is likely to include elements imported from memories of other zoo trips.

Step-by-step explanation:

Will's recollection of the school field trip to the zoo is likely to include elements imported from memories of other zoo trips.

This is because memory reconstruction is a common phenomenon where old memories can be altered and modified during retrieval. When recalling his experience from the field trip, Will's brain may fill in gaps or inaccuracies by retrieving information from his previous visits to the zoo.

For example, if Will saw a specific animal during his family trips and associates it with the zoo, he may mistakenly remember seeing that animal during the school field trip as well.
