Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Episodic memory pertains to personal experiences and events in one's life, such as birthdays. Therefore, the best choice is D, as Deanna's memory of her own birthday is affected. Semantic memory pertains to general knowledge and facts, implicit memory pertains to non-conscious memory, and procedural memory pertains to memory of how to do things. None of these options are as appropriate as episodic memory in this context.
