From a cognitive psychology perspective, getting plenty of sleep the night before an exam is important because:

It helps to embed the materials studied in the long term memory

Cognitive psychology has to do with the study of the processes of the brain and how their performance affect daily life.

For a student that has been studying for some few hours, it is imperative that that student gets a good night sleep the night before he would write the exam so that he would not forget what he learnt when he studied.

The part of the brain that is responsible for long term memory which is the hippocampus needs not to be overexerted so that the student can easily recall what he learnt.

Therefore, the correct answer is it helps embed the materials studied in the long term memory.

andrezito [222]

Answer:

Conservation of mechanical energy

Explanation:

Law of Conservation of Mechanical Energy: The total amount of mechanical energy, in a closed system in the absence of dissipative forces (e.g. friction, air resistance), remains constant.

In the absence of air resistance, the mechanical energy of an object moving through the air in the Earth's gravitational field, remains constant (is conserved) while the opposite is the case when there is air resistance involved.
