Unlike short-term memory, long-term memory is ____
A
permanent
B
fleeting
C
brief
D
implicit
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Long-term memory (LTM) is the continuous storage of information. Unlike short-term memory, the storage capacity of LTM has no limits. It encompasses all the things you can remember that happened more than just a few minutes ago to all of the things that you can remember that happened days, weeks, and years ago.

Detailed explanation-2: -Many think of long-term memory as a permanent “bank” within the brain. Once a memory arrives there, the mind stores it completely and indefinitely. In truth, this is not the case. Although the long-term memory process allows information to remain in the brain for an extended period, nothing in the brain avoids risk.

Detailed explanation-3: -Short-term memory loss is something that should not be taken lightly and should be investigated further. Some memory problems are the result of treatable conditions, and memory loss can often be reversed when the condition is treated correctly.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Information stored in long-term memory lasts longer than those is short-term memory. Long-term memory decays very little with time and it is easier to recall. Our conscious mind may not be aware of the information stored in long-term memory. But this information can be recalled with ease and accuracy.

Detailed explanation-5: -The permanent memory of a computer is known as ROM(Read-only memory). In computers and other electronic devices, read-only memory (ROM) is a form of non-volatile memory. After the memory unit is manufactured, data contained in ROM cannot be electronically changed.
