The graph illustrate how long-term memory is formed through variety of progress inside the brain. Overall, this is linear-type process which consists of 4 major steps before generating a long-term memory. The actions is collected through sensory input in the beginning, after series of recall and practice, it created a long-term memory in the end.
Regarding the first two steps, the information is transformed into short-term memories by using parts of human body ( ears, hands, eyes, nose). Subsequently the brain will categorize it into two brackets which is essential or unimportant. The former will continue its journey while the later one will eventually be forgotten by the host.
In the subsequent stages, the memories are rehearsed, which helps encode the information into the brain’s long-term storage areas. Ultimately, the information is transferred to the hippocampus or other related regions, where it is stored as long-term memory.
