Detailed explanation-1: -Through the process of association and rehearsal, the content of short-term memory can become long-term memory. Long-term memories can last from a matter of days to as long as many decades.

Detailed explanation-2: -Long-term memory refers to the memory process in the brain that takes information from the short-term memory store and creates long lasting memories. These memories can be from an hour ago or several decades ago. Long-term memory can hold an unlimited amount of information for an indefinite period of time.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are two types of long-term memories: procedural memory and declarative memory. Individuals are consciously aware of their declarative memory, whereas procedural memory is unconscious, therefore, declarative memory is also called explicit memory, while procedural memory is called implicit memory.

Detailed explanation-4: -There are roughly three phases in the life of a long-term memory. It must be acquired or learned; it must be stored or retained over time; and, if it is to be of any value, it must be successfully retrieved. These three phases are known as acquisition, storage, and retrieval.
