This is an example of ________.A.chunkingB.elaborative rehearsalC.blockingD.engramming

Answer 1

Answer:

a) chunking

Explanation:

Chunking is a process of taking individual pieces of information (chunks) and separating them into larger units. By making a group out of each piece of information into a group, a person can improve the amount of information and remember them easily.

By separating individual elements into larger groups, information becomes easier to recall. This is because of the fact that our short-term memory is very limited.
