Answer: A) Pruning
Explanation: Pruning in the view of neuroscientist is a process that occur through out a person's life span but more active between childhood and adulthood and slows down afterwards; it involves the reduction of synapses and neurons in the brain. It is a way of eliminating neural pathways in the brain that are no longer in use. As a child learn new things, the brain develops and become more mature, some neural connections develop and become more useful while others are no longer useful, pruning helps in removing these pathways that are no longer in use.

Answer:
Retrograde amnesia
Explanation:
In psychology, when you suffer an injury, loss of consciousness or start having a disease (like dementia) you can get retrograde amnesia, which is the phenomenon by which you forget the events that took place just before the injury.
As opposed to the anterograde amnesia in which you forget the events that take place after the injury and therefore they cannot be stored into the long-term memory.
In this example, we are asked for the phenomenon that occurs when an individual experiences a loss of memory for experiences that occurred shortly before a loss of consciousness. Thus, this would be retrograde amnesia.
