When rehearsal of incoming information is prevented, which of the following will most likely occur?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

B - There will be no transfer of information to long term memory

Explanation:

Memory refers to the series of activities by which we acquire, store and retrieve information.

Storage is retention of information over time and we have 3 main storage areas namely: sensory memory, short term memory and long term memory. When we receive information, it is first stored in vivid details in the sensory memory but only for a second because even though it has a large capacity, it is incapable of processing any information.

Some of the information is then transferred to the short term memory which has an average storage range of 30-45 seconds which can be higher with a little rehearsal.

Without rehearsal, the information cannot last long enough to make the transfer to long term memory as the storage time in short term memory is too brief

Explain the role a pharaoh played in a theocracy.
pochemuha
Theocracy is the opposite of the separation of Church and Government: it means that the rule in the country is connected to religion.

Pharaoh was the ruler of the country - equivalent to a king, but also he was a priest (the highest priest in the country) and often a God. This means that he took all the administrative and political decisions, but also the religious decisions in the country.


This also meant that the rule of the Pharaoh could not be challenged as it has a divide origin.
