Question

people who must memorize a lot of information, and remember it for a long time, are relying on the ______ more than most people.

a. corpus callosum.

b. cerebellum.

c. amygdala.

d. hippocampus.

Explanation:

The hippocampus is a brain structure crucial for long - term memory formation and the storage of declarative memories (memories of facts and events). People who need to memorize a large amount of information and retain it for a long time rely more on the hippocampus. The corpus callosum connects the two hemispheres of the brain, the cerebellum is mainly involved in motor control and coordination, and the amygdala is associated with emotions, especially fear and emotional memory. So the correct answer is D.

Answer:

D. hippocampus.
