Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Retrospective memory involves recalling information from the past, while prospective memory involves planning for and remembering to complete a future task. At the beginning of a series of behaviors, an animal would likely rely on retrospective memory to recall previous steps and guide its current behavior. As the series progresses and the animal approaches the end, it would be more focused on prospective memory, planning and remembering the final steps needed to complete the task successfully. Therefore, option B is the best choice.
