Which part of the brain transfers short-term memory to long-term memory?
- Cerebellum
- Hippocampus
- Amygdala
- None of the above
Explanation
Memory is a primary function of the brain’s hippocampal region.

and kampos means ‘seahorse’ since its structure is similar to the sea horse.
The function of long-term memory is to consolidate information from short-term memory to long-term memory.
