Question

You've just met John at a party and he gives you his phone number so you can get together later. You didn't write it down right away, and a few minutes later, you have forgotten it. This is because you failed to move the number from -term memory to -term memory.

Answer 1

Short; long

Step-by-step explanation:

When we create a memory, this is stored in the mind in different ways. First, the memory is stored in the sensory stage. It is then moved to the short-term memory, and in some cases, it ends up being moved to the long-term memory. However, we do not keep all the memories we make, because the brain can consider some to be unecessary, irrelevant, or traumatic. In this example, we have forgotten the number because we did not move it from short-term to long-term memory.

Answer 2

Short-term memory to long-term memory

Step-by-step explanation:

You've just met John at a party and he gives you his phone number so you can get together later. You didn't write it down right away, and a few minutes later, you have forgotten it. This is because you failed to move the number from short-term memory to long-term memory.

Short-term memory stores limited amount of information, about 5 - 9 pieces of information and for a limited time duration while long-term memory stores large amount of information and for a long period of time.
