Long term memory: that is a memory for longer duration. It is involved in storing, retrieving and managing of content.

a. short term memory is preceded by Priya frontal lobes of the brain which are present in very front portion of the brain.

hippocampus and inner portion of unfolding of temporal lobes are involved in the long-term memory.

b. changes occurs when short term memory is converted into long term memory through hippocampus.

when short term memory is converted into long term memory so kind of changes and occurs in the format of data.

c. Several researchers gives the idea that the holding capacity of memory is 2.5 petabytes for millions of years.

( this data is obtained from researchers)
