Answer:D) recency; short-term

Step-by-step explanation:

The recency effect refers to how we tend to remember the information of something that has just happened more than we remember any other information.if you were studying it is likely to remember the information that you studied last than the one you started with.

It is a component of the serial position effect , the position of where the information is located on the list will have an impact on how you recall that information.

You are more likely to recall Information that you studied more recently and the last information that you encoded. The information in between the first and the last is one that one may find it hard to recall.
