Answer:

The answer is encoding failure.

Explanation:

Encoding refers to the process of transforming a message into a thought. Failure to do this results in missing memory links, thus it's impossible or very difficult to retrieve the information from our brains.

Encoding failure can occur when the brain is focused on a different task. Memory links, especially long-term, usually need complete attention to be created.
