Introduction
Memory is a complex process which psychologists have studied for many years. Despite these studies, we are still not entirely sure how the memory process works. Psychologists do, however, agree that there are three stages to the memory process: acquisition, storage, and retrieval.

Explanation of Solution
Correct answer and explanation
In this case, the correct choice is option (C), Schema. Schema is a thought process which involves the organization and categorization of information. In short, this concept describes the organization of memories. It is a part of Stage Two, Storage, but is not a stage of memory processing and of itself.
Explanations for incorrect options
Option (A) refers to Storage. This is the second of the three stages of processing memories. The question asks us to choose an option NOT part of memory processing. So, option (A) is incorrect.
Option (B) refers to Retrieval. Retrieval is the third of three stages of memory processing. The question asks us to choose an option NOT part of memory processing. So, option (B) is incorrect.
Option (D) refers to Acquisition. The first of three stages of memory processing is acquisition. The question asks us to choose an option NOT part of memory processing. So, option (D) is incorrect.
Therefore, the Options (A), (B), and (D) are incorrect.
