Implicit Memory - Explicit Memory
Solution
Implicit memory and Explicit memory are subsystems of Long Term Memory. Implicit memory is also called non-declarative or procedural memory. It is developed through practice and repetition. It is the unconscious memory of skills, habits, and simple conditioned responses. It is less prone to forgetting even in most cases of amnesia. Explicit memory is also known as declarative memory. It holds conscious memories of facts and life events or experiences. It includes episodic memory which is the memory of the personal life experiences of a person and it's associated emotions. i.e. autobiographical memories like flashbulb memory. Explicit memory also includes semantic memory i.e., the structured record of facts, ideas, grammar, and rules of logic.
