Answer to Problem 1TY

Correct answer:

There are three prime steps of the memory process, first the information is sent to the system, the information is stored there, and then it gets back out. This information is reflected in the option “b” Therefore, option b. is correct.

Option b. is given as “putting it, keeping it, getting it out”.

Explanation of Solution

Reasons for the correct statement:

In the first step the information is sent to the memory system through the senses, here the information is stored for some time. The last step associated with memory is the retrieval of the memory; retrieval refers to the getting the memory out of storage or forgetting a particular memory.

Hence, option b. is correct.

Reasons for the incorrect statements:

Option a. is given as “finding it, using it, storing it, using it again”.

The senses are responsible for passing the information up to the memory system; the sensory organs receive the senses through the receptors, the brain use and store the information. The last step given “using it” is not associated with the memory system.

Hence, it is a wrong answer.

Option c. is given as “sensing it, perceiving it, remembering it, forgetting it”.

The memory system do not sense the senses, the sensory organs are responsible for the senses. The senses are sent in the form of information to the memory system.

Hence, it is a wrong answer.

Option d. is given as “a series of positive data files”.

All the information or senses are not positive senses. An individual has to go through many negative memories too. Hence, it is a wrong answer.

Hence, options a., c., and d. are incorrect.

Conclusion

The correct sequence of memory steps is “putting it, keeping it, and getting it out”.
