This stores memories
A
Limbic system
B
Occipital Lobe
C
Temporal Lobe
D
Thalamus
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hippocampus. The hippocampus, located in the brain’s temporal lobe, is where episodic memories are formed and indexed for later access.

Detailed explanation-2: -The researchers found that while the overall experience is stored in the hippocampus, the brain structure long considered the seat of memory, the individual details are parsed and stored elsewhere, in the prefrontal cortex.

Detailed explanation-3: -The temporal lobe contains the primary auditory complex. This is the first area responsible for interpreting information in the form of sounds from the ears. The temporal lobe receives different frequencies, sounds, and pitches from the ears, and gives them meaning.

Detailed explanation-4: -A curved seahorse-shaped organ on the underside of each temporal lobe, the hippocampus is part of a larger structure called the hippocampal formation. It supports memory, learning, navigation and perception of space. It receives information from the cerebral cortex and may play a role in Alzheimer’s disease.

Detailed explanation-5: -The right temporal lobe, which is typically the least dominant in people, is associated with learning and memorizing non-verbal information (e.g. drawings and music), recognizing information, and determining facial expressions.
