Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Long-term Memory: the relatively permanent and limitless storehouse of the memory system.

Detailed explanation-2: -a relatively permanent information storage system that enables one to retain, retrieve, and make use of skills and knowledge hours, weeks, or even years after they were originally learned.

Detailed explanation-3: -Long-Term Memory. Long-term memory refers to unlimited storage information to be maintained for long periods, even for life. There are two types of long-term memory: declarative or explicit memory and non-declarative or implicit memory. Explicit memory refers to information that can be consciously evoked.

Detailed explanation-4: -Short-term memory can hold approximately 7 bits of information for around 20 seconds. Information here is either forgotten, or it is encoded into long-term memory through the process of rehearsal. Long-term memory is the permanent storage of information-its capacity is basically unlimited.

Detailed explanation-5: -When long-term memories form, the hippocampus retrieves information from the working memory and begins to change the brain’s physical neural wiring. These new connections between neurons and synapses stay as long as they remain in use.
