Arianna was an accomplished gymnast in her youth but hasn’t been to the gym for nearly 10 years. Despite this, with some prompting from her old coach, she’s able to do almost her entire uneven bar routine. This is an example of ________.
A. explicit memory.B. sensory memory.C. procedural memory.

Respuesta :

The answer is C: procedural memory. This is because gymnastics is a task that Arianna has done in the past. It became something her body learned and mastered. She learned HOW TO DO IT. A procedure is "an established or official way of doing something" (Oxford). An explicit memory would be things like your name, close family and friends, birthday, etc.. A sensory memory would be something that someone could sense (see, hear, touch, taste, smell) for a short period of time, but still remember.
