AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Damage to the frontal lobe of the brain eventually causes problems with intelligence, judgment, and behaviour. Damage to the temporal lobe affects memory. And damage to the parietal lobe affects language.

Detailed explanation-2: -Most available evidence suggests that the functions of memory are carried out by the hippocampus and other related structures in the temporal lobe.

Detailed explanation-3: -If one or both parts of the hippocampus are damaged by illnesses such as Alzheimer’s disease, or if they are hurt in an accident, the person can experience a loss of memory and a loss of the ability to make new, long-term memories.

Detailed explanation-4: -The hippocampus is the area of the brain responsible for moving information from short-term to long-term, however, it does not store the information itself.
