Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mental lexicon refers to the mental dictionary of words and their meanings that a person has stored in their memory. This falls under the category of semantics, which is the study of meaning in language, making option A the correct choice. Syntax and grammar pertain more to how words are organized and structured in a sentence, while sentence planning is the process of putting together a coherent and grammatically correct sentence, but does not directly relate to the storage of words in memory.
