Question

The inability to remember past events is called _____, and the inability to form new memories is called _____.

Answer 1

The inability to remember past events is called “retrograde amnesia”, and the inability to form new memories is called “anterograde amnesia”.

Amnesia is a shortfall in memory caused by cerebrum harm, infection, or mental injury. Amnesia can likewise be caused incidentally by the utilization of different tranquilizers and sleep inducing drugs. The memory can be either entirely or incompletely lost because of the degree of harm that was caused.
