Answer:

The answers to each question are in the explanation.

Explanation:

1.It is like a wikipedia page because it summarizes a story but without remembering important details or events, it also feeds on what other people perceive or remember.

2. The students who assimilated a false memory hinted by the doctor that they were lost, when in reality it was not.  Another false memory was to insinuate some participants that they had become sick from eating strawberry ice cream as children. Many believed that this actually happened.

3. In the same way, many times it has happened to each one of us, we have been sure that we have done something and it has not been like this, many people have happened that they have been very sure to remember a thief, but in reality They remember all the facial details of the thief well and perhaps end up believing that he was an innocent person.

4. If we believe that all that is in our memory are true memories, we could be very surprised; our memory is fragile, it does not detail each and every one of the moments that we live only in many occasions conserves some details of the events that have most impacted our lives, they can also acquire new "false memories" when we talk with other people who may have been with us, so we can end up acquiring new "false memories".
