Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The consolidation of memory can refer to both synaptic consolidation (which involves the strengthening of the connections between neurons) and system consolidation (which involves the gradual transfer of memories from the hippocampus to other parts of the brain for long-term storage). Therefore, the best choice is B, which includes both synaptic and system consolidation. The other choices do not accurately capture both types of consolidation.
