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).

How the instruction code is stored in a cell?

Instruction codes are typically stored as binary data in memory cells in a computer system. Each instruction is represented by a sequence of bits that the processor can interpret and execute. The specific format and organization of the instruction code within the memory cells are determined by the computer architecture and the encoding scheme used by the processor.


How does the keyboard memory function in storing and recalling user input on electronic devices?

The keyboard memory function in electronic devices stores the user's input by recording the key presses and storing them temporarily in the device's memory. When the user wants to recall the input, the device retrieves the stored information from memory and displays it on the screen. This allows users to type, edit, and save text or commands on their electronic devices.


How is a memory-resident part of an operating system different from a nonresident part of an system?

A memory-resident part of an operating system is continuously loaded into the computer's memory and ready for immediate use, enabling faster access and better system performance. On the other hand, a nonresident part is stored on the disk and is only loaded into memory when needed, causing delays in accessing the functionality.


How do your senses affect memory?

Our senses play a crucial role in memory formation. Different senses stimulate different parts of the brain, helping to create stronger and more vivid memories. Smells, sounds, and visuals can trigger recall of past experiences or events by activating the associated neural pathways. Additionally, sensory-rich experiences are more likely to be stored in long-term memory due to the increased connections formed in the brain.
