Answer 1

Felicia's memories of the man she disliked in college that influence her decision in the trial are implicitly encoded and can have an impact on her decisions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Felicia's memories of the man she disliked in college that influence her decision in the trial are implicitly encoded.
