Answer:

semantic encoding

Explanation:

Semantic encoding is cognitive encoding of new information that focuses on its meaningful aspects as opposed to its perceptual characteristics. This will usually involve some form of elaboration.

Semantic processing is when we apply meaning to words and compare or relate it to words with similar meanings. This deeper level of processing involves elaborative rehearsal, which is a more meaningful way to analyze information. This makes it more likely that the information will be stored in long-term memory, as it is associated with previously learned concepts.

In this instance Dr. Amit notices that the lower left frontal lobe and inner part of the left temporal lobe are particularly active during the task thus making it a semantic encoding

Semantic Encoding

Explanation:

Encoding is the process of getting information into memory for storage. It involves associating it with objects, sound, visions etc

Semantic encoding is a specific type of encoding in which the meaning of something is encoded as opposed to the sound or vision of it. Research suggests that we have better memory for things we associate meaning to and store using semantic encoding

The process of breaking the information down into a form we understand is the process of encoding

How does energy flow between the sun plants and other organisms?
SSSSS [86.1K]
The continual input of energy, mostly from sunlight, sustains the process of life. Sunlight allows plants, algae and cyanobacteria to use photosynthesis to convert carbon dioxide and water into organic compounds like carbohydrates. This process is the fundamental source of organic material in the biosphere. There are a few exceptions to this, such as ecosystems living around hydrothermal vents on the ocean floor, which derive their energy from the chemical compounds such as methane and hydrogen sulfide. In either case, the overall productivity of an ecosystem is controlled by the total energy available.
