1. Why does the temporal gradient in amnesia occur for older memories?
- Because they havent been retrieved as much, their quality and neural basis changes into more episodic memory
- Because they have been retrieved more, their quality and neural basis changes into more episodic memory
- Because they have been retrieved more, their quality and neural basis changes into more semantic memory

4. What does the lesion at 28 days with intact memory in Kim & Fanselow (1992) suggest?

- Memory no longer 'in' the hippocampus, consoldated
- Memory no longer 'in' the neocortex, consolidated
- After a day memory is still in the hippocampus
