This study guide covers the brain's memory system, focusing on key structures like the hippocampus (explicit memory), frontal lobes (working memory), thalamus (sensory memory), cerebellum (implicit memory, classical conditioning), basal ganglia (procedural memory), and amygdala (emotional memory). It also explains long-term potentiation (LTP), the role of neurotransmitters (glutamate, acetylcholine), and provides practice questions and exam tips.
