Answer to Question 1

All memories begin as sensory memory. Sensory memory is where new incoming information is first registered.We only have to experience things for a small fraction of a second to process the information. Sensory memory takes in large amounts of information rapidly. However, unless we pay attention to the sensory information, its representation is lost quickly. Age differences are not typically found in sensory memory
