Detailed explanation-1: -Encoding: the processing of information into the memory system (i.e., getting information into memory). Storage: the retention of the encoded information over time. Retrieval: the process of getting information out of memory storage.
Detailed explanation-2: -Memory retention refers to the ability to remember information over a period of time. In short, it is the process of retrieving information after it has been encoded and stored. Occasionally, our retention may decay, and our stored memory is lost as time goes on. This event is also known as forgetting.
Detailed explanation-3: -Storage is the retention of the encoded information. Retrieval, or getting the information out of memory and back into awareness, is the third function.
