Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -PRECONSCIOUS: Latent parts of the brain that are readily available to the conscious mind, although not currently in use. Freud used this term to make clear that the repressed is a part of the unconscious, not all of it, which is to say that the repressed does not comprise the whole unconscious.

Detailed explanation-2: -In Chapter 2 of his book, The Ego and the ID, Freud explains that the real difference between an unconscious idea and a preconscious idea is that unconscious ideas are based on unknown material, whereas preconscious ideas are usually brought into consciousness via connections with word-presentations.

Detailed explanation-3: -The preconscious consists of those things we could pay conscious attention to if we so desired, and where many memories are stored for easy retrieval.
