Arrange the basic memory processes in the order that information typically passes through them.

### The order 1. **Encoding**: Incoming information is first processed into a memorable form. 2. **Storage**: Encoded information is maintained over time. 3. **Retrieval**: Stored information is accessed when needed. ### The concept This sequence describes the basic functional relationship among the processes. Retrieval can occur at many later times, and a real memory system may be more complex, but information must be encoded before it can be stored in the described sense and retrieved from storage. ### Terms - **Encoding**: Initial processing into a memorable form. - **Storage**: Maintenance of encoded information. - **Retrieval**: Accessing stored information. ### Remember Form, maintain, access: encoding, storage, retrieval.
