In the following question, the first and the last parts of the sentence/passage are numbered 1 and 6. The rest of the sentence/passage is split into four parts - P, Q, R, and S. These four parts are not given in their proper order. Read the sentence/passage and find the most logical order of the parts between 1 and 6.
Human memory is a complex neurological process.
P: Short-term memory stores data temporarily for immediate use.
Q: Information can be transferred to long-term memory with repetition.
R: The brain filters and encodes information efficiently.
S: Long-term memory holds information for an extended period.
6. Understanding memory helps improve learning strategies.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The logical order for the sentences provided in the passage is RPSQ.
Logical Sequence:
Introduction (1): "Human memory is a complex neurological process." This introduces the broad subject.
Part R: "The brain filters and encodes information efficiently." This naturally follows the introduction by explaining the initial stage of the memory process (encoding).
Part P: "Short-term memory stores data temporarily for immediate use." After encoding, the next logical step in the memory hierarchy is short-term storage.
Part S: "Long-term memory holds information for an extended period." This contrasts short-term memory with long-term storage.
Part Q: "Information can be transferred to long-term memory with repetition." This provides the mechanism for how information moves between the stages mentioned in P and S.
Conclusion (6): "Understanding memory helps improve learning strategies." This summarizes the significance of the processes described.
