The processing of information into the memory system.
A
encoding
B
storage
C
retrieval
D
automatic processing
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Encoding is the act of getting information into our memory system through automatic or effortful processing. Storage is retention of the information, and retrieval is the act of getting information out of storage and into conscious awareness through recall, recognition, and relearning.

Detailed explanation-2: -Encoding is the first process of memory, during which information is transformed so that it can be stored. This is a physiological process which starts with attention. A memorable event causes the neurons to fire more rapidly, organizing the information into a systematic array that can be recalled later.

Detailed explanation-3: -Memory involves three main processes: encoding (the process by which information is put into memory), storage (the process by which information is maintained in memory), and retrieval (the process by which information is recovered from memory). Encoding may be visual, acoustic, or semantic.

Detailed explanation-4: -We get information into our brains through a process called encoding, which is the input of information into the memory system. Once we receive sensory information from the environment, our brains label or code it. We organize the information with other similar information and connect new concepts to existing concepts.

Detailed explanation-5: -Memory encoding allows information to be converted into a construct that is stored in the brain indefinitely; once it is encoded, it can be recalled from either short-or long-term memory. The four primary types of encoding are visual, acoustic, elaborative, and semantic.
