Answer:

Your memory will change, outside influence will help alter them, that is why they are separated

Year's ago the was a class assignment or demonstration, that proved it, they staged a realistic purse snatching, in front of the class, the only ones in on it were the two performers ( victim and perpetrator) and the professor, and one mole, then the police responded in real-time, and conducted an investigation, most people saw the event differently and even described the subject differently, the mole made. suggestions like I think he had a red shirt and long hair( he had a blue shirt and normal length hair) and most agreed with the mole, some saw facial hair, some did not, it was obvious that suggestions from others influence what people thought they had observed, ( I do not recall the college this was conducted at, as it was many year's ago )

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps
