During every moment of an organism's life, sensory information is being taken in by sensory receptors and processed by the nervous system. The information people received which is stored in sensory memory is just long enough to be transferred to short-term. Humans have five main denses. Sensory allows individuals to return impress of sensory information after the original stimulus has ceased. A common demonstration of SM is a child's ability to write letters  and make circles by twirling a sparkler at night,. when the sensory stroe known as iconic memory. The other two types of SM that have been most exten sievely studied are echoic memory, and haptic memory; however, it is reasonable to  assume that eacth physiological sense has a corresponding memory store. Children for example have been shown to  remember specific "sweet " tastes during incidental learning trials but the <span> nature of this gustatory store is still unclear.</span>

Answer:

C. we would become overloaded by the amount of incoming information

Explanation:

Sensory memory is the retention of information perceived by our 5 senses before it is processed into our short-term memory. It is responsible for providing the visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory and taste stimuli for our memory.

In our brain it represents areas and nerve endings responsible for the sensory organs and has enormous speed. But on the other hand her retention is very short-lived, only until her electrical impulses reach short-term memory, which may later discard them or not.

If sensory memory lasted longer, our brain would not have the ability to exclude unimportant information and we would be overwhelmed with the amount of information we received.
