The part of the brain that consolidates memory is in the temporal area,the left temporol lobe.
When you hear a phone number and write it down, your brain uses short term memory.
The brain
Almost the whole entire brain uses storage or memory when it does something. Examples: When we see you may ask yourself the question; how did my brain know that was there? Your brain uses its memory of the world, past experiences, and what it thinks should be there in order to give you vision. When we dream our brain uses memory from our memory storage and mixes non-useful images and ideas together erasing them from our memory, this is why be cant remember all our dreams completely. When we smell our brain uses a its memory in smells and signals the nerves in the nose to smell what we remembered what it smelt like before. Almost everything comes from memory or storage.
yes!
Memory is acuity spread thought the brain, along with thinking. it really depends on the definition of "thinking"
cerebrum
The hippocampus
The back side.
Memory is stored throughout the brain. However, the part of the brain responsible for actually coordinating the long-term storage of memory is the hippocampus (in the limbic system).
The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain (it makes up 85% of the brain's weight) and it is the thinking part of the brain and contains your short and long term memories.
The cerebral cortex is responsible for speech thought and memory
