You have a class that is composed of 14 African Americans, 5 White Americans, 3 Japanese Americans, and 2 immigrant students from the former South Vietnam. You are beginning a discussion of World War II with your history students. You begin by asking the students to tell you what they think caused the war in the Pacific theater. Kevin Davis immediately says, The bombing of Pearl Harbor.
  Sort of, Kristi Sukawa responds, but America was threatening to cut off the flow of oil from the East Indies to Japan. That's what really caused the war. The factor best illustrated in Kevin's and Kristi's comments is the impact diversity has on:
 
  a. retrieval and forgetting.
  b. the contents of students' working memories.
  c. students' attention and rehearsal.
  d. students' prior knowledge.
