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

Answer:

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

1. Muscles move tendons attached to bone by performing an action called _______.
REY [17]

1. Contraction

2. Actin

3. Tendons

4. Epidermis

5. Dermis

6. Acne

7. A nerve signal from the brain arrives at the intersection of the nerve and muscle cells and releases acetylcholine from the neuron. This triggers chemical changes in the muscle cell involving ions, including Ca2+. Calcium triggers the thick filaments, made of myosin, to attach to the thin filaments, made of actin, in the muscle cell, and the myosin pulls the actin toward the center of the muscle cell. ATP causes the release of the actin fibers, allowing the muscle to relax and the process to begin again.

How do sheet joints and exfoliation domes form in granite plutons?
fomenos
<span>Sheet fractures are accurate fractures defining slabs of rock that range from 0.5 to 10 meters thick. They normally form in sets parallel to the Earth's surface but may form in convex-upward or concave-upward sets. The most popular hypothesis of the formation of sheet fractures is that they are the result of expansion and tangential fracturing consequent on erosion offloading or pressure release.</span>
