Long-term potentiation (ltp) is best described as follows: a. constructed memories have the potential to be either accurate or inaccurate. b. implicit memories are processed by the cerebellum instead of by the hippocampus. c. it's easier to recognize than to recall information. d. these synaptic changes allow for more efficient transfer of information.

The correct answer is letter C

LTP is the most recognized cellular mechanism for explaining memory, because it can alter the strength between brain cell connections. If this strength is maintained, a memory can be formed.

Long-term potentiation happens when the nerve cells "shed" or speak to one another at a high rate, without increasing the stimulation of neurotransmitters. In a sense, it's like building a relationship with the email sender. Once you have started a dialogue with the sender you are in a better position to communicate more easily and maintain a strong relationship. Just as you can add the sender to your contact list, your brain has created an “enhanced synaptic contact.” But, if you are not speaking, the relationship decreases.
