- Bumped
- Collided
9. What is the duration and capacity of Sensory Memory?
- Duration is under 2 secs and Capacity is very limited
- Duration is around 18 secs and Capacity is 7 ± 2 items

10. What is the purpose of the Visuo-Spatial Sketchpad?
- It stores and processes information in a visual or spatial form
- It deals with spoken and written material
- To bind together all the information from the other components
- It controls attention and coordinates the actions of the other components
11. What two types of rehearsal are required in the MSM?
