A proud grandmother announces to her friends: "Yesterday my 7-month-old granddaughter clearly remembered a toy that she played with when she visited me three weeks ago." Based on the results of research on infant habituation and memory, is the grandmother's claim possible?
A) It is quite possible, because infants show memory for familiar events when given a cue.
B) It is possible only if her granddaughter had played with the toy for several hours.
C) It is not possible because this capability has not been demonstrated in infants before 1 year of age.
D) It is not possible, because infants at this age habituate rapidly and, as a result, forget within a few hours.
