Answer:

Context dependent memory

Step-by-step explanation:

This is context dependent memory. Remember that she first overhead this conversation when she was studying. In the second scenario, she when she starts to remember the conversation she overhead, she is a similar setting and about to study again.

Context dependent memory is simply remembering things when we are faces with similar conditions.
