Mr. Wagner stands in front of the class explaining the process of photosynthesis. Ellen is sitting in the front row, but her mind is on the fight she had with her best friend just before class. Based on this information, how far in Ellen's information processing system did Mr. Wagner's lecture get?

Answer:

It reached the sensory register

Step-by-step explanation:

The sensory register refers to memory store that first receives information from the senses. The Sensory register is also called sensory memory and this is the first memory you have through the senses. It is an ultra-short-term memory which takes in sensory information through the five senses :sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch and it doesn't last more than a few seconds. This is where the student memory of the lecture stopped because she did been only hearing the lecturer say something but not actually listening.
