Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4. i.e. process.

  • The word "process" refers to a gradual change that occurs over time, which is an accurate description of memory loss with aging.
  • "Trial" and "type" do not accurately describe the natural process of aging, and "method" refers to a specific way of doing something, which is not relevant to the context of memory loss with aging.
  • Thus, process will be the most accurate filler for the given blank.

Therefore, the correct sentence is:

Memory loss, with aging, is considered a natural and normal process.
