A
visual encoding
B
acoustic encoding
C
rote memorization
D
semantic encoding
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Semantic encoding is the process of encoding sensory input that has particular meaning or can be applied to a particular context, rather than deriving from a particular sense.

Detailed explanation-2: -Words that had been encoded semantically were better remembered than those encoded visually or acoustically. Semantic encoding involves a deeper level of processing than the shallower visual or acoustic encoding.

Detailed explanation-3: -Semantic encoding engages deeper processing than visual or acoustic encoding and is subsequently linked to better recall. Because it uses a different level of processing, semantic encoding ingrains information more in the brain and allows it to be remembered more accurately and easily.

Detailed explanation-4: -Semantic Encoding This may include remembering concepts, ideas, definitions, and dates, etc. Semantic encoding is easier to recall than the non-semantic or shallow encoding of things. Attaching emotions to information is a good idea to make semantic encoding much more memorable.
