how does repetition affect memories?
○ it strengthens neural pathways, making recall easier.
○ it gives you something to think about.
○ it improves your ability to consolidate memory when you are sleeping.
○ it produces proteins that make the neurons stronger and healthier.

Explanation:

Repetition reinforces the neural connections associated with a memory through the process of long-term potentiation, which makes accessing (recalling) that memory more efficient over time. The other options are either too vague or do not directly describe the core effect of repetition on memory.

Answer:

A. It strengthens neural pathways, making recall easier.
