Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Sensory memory stores information for a very brief period of time, usually in the range of milliseconds to seconds. Short-term memory, on the other hand, can retain information for several seconds to minutes without rehearsal. Long-term memory, implicit memory, and explicit memory are not relevant to the comparison of short-term and sensory memory.
