Has unlimited storage capacity
A
Working memory
B
Short-term memory
C
Sensory memory
D
Long-term memory
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Long-term memory refers to the transfer of information from short-term memory into long-term storage in order to create enduring memories. This type of memory is unlimited in capacity and stable-lasting for years or even a lifetime.

Detailed explanation-2: -Theoretically, the capacity of long-term memory could be unlimited, the main constraint on recall being accessibility rather than availability. Duration might be a few minutes or a lifetime. Suggested encoding modes are semantic (meaning) and visual (pictorial) in the main but can be acoustic also.

Detailed explanation-3: -Long‐term memory. Long‐term memory (LTM) has an unlimited capacity and a very long duration; it is virtually limitless. Repetition and elaborative rehearsal (manipulation of information by giving it meaning) are helpful techniques in storing information in LTM.

Detailed explanation-4: -Long-term memory (LTM) is the continuous storage of information. Unlike short-term memory, the storage capacity of LTM has no limits.

Detailed explanation-5: -While long-term memory has a seemingly unlimited capacity that lasts years, short-term memory is relatively brief and limited. Short-term memory is limited in both capacity and duration. In order for a memory to be retained, it needs to be transferred from short-term stores into long-term memory.
