Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The steps to memory involve encoding (putting it in), storage (keeping it in), and retrieval (getting it out). Option A, "putting it in, keeping it in, getting it out," accurately reflects these processes. Option B suggests too many additional steps such as "finding it" and "using it again," while option C includes the additional step of perceiving that is not necessarily a part of the memory process. Option D is incorrect as memory involves active processing and not passive data storage.
