Question

There are 4 steps of memory (according to information-processing models):

(a) Encoding
(b) Storage
(c) Retrieval
(d) Parallel processing

What happens to the neurons in your brain every time you learn something new?

Answer 1

When you learn something new neurons in your brain start parallel processing.

Step-by-step explanation:

In information- processing models there are four stage;

• Encoding- Receiving of data in code format.

• Storage- Accumulation of information in small group in different parts of the brain.

• Retrieval- Reorganize and recapitulation of received data.

• Parallel processing- Keeping the earlier collected data and simultaneously receiving new data.

All these levels similarly work in our brain when a person learn, retain, retrieve something new. A child in its growing stage run through all these phases (0 to 12 years old).
