Key Points. The trace decay theory of forgetting states that all memories fade automatically as a function of time; under this theory, you need to follow a certain path, or trace, to recall a memory. Under interference theory, all memories interfere with the ability to recall other memories.
An explanation that proposes, forgetting in long-term memory happens because other memories stand in the way of retrieval of what you are trying to remember, for example if the other memories are similar to the one you are trying to remember.
Answer 2:
One theory of forgetting is decay theory, in which the main cause of forgetting is due to passage of time. Another theory of forgetting is retrieval failure, in which forgetting occurs when there is a mismatch between retrieval and encoding. One more theory of forgetting is motivated forgetting, in which forgetting occurs when we don’t want to remember something unpleasant.
Genes go from DNA to (m)RNA via transcription. Then, RNA is converted to protein via translation. For eg, the insulin hormone is a peptide hormine (peptide is basically protein) which comes from insulin mRNA which was the result of transcription of insulin gene in beta islet cells of pancreas.
