Memory
**Memory** in living creatures refers to the processes by which information is encoded, stored, and retrieved in the brain. It enables organisms to learn from experience, adapt to changes, and perform complex behaviors. Memory can be short-term or long-term and involves various brain regions, especially the hippocampus in mammals. It underpins essential functions such as recognition, decision-making, and problem-solving. Disorders affecting memory, such as amnesia or Alzheimer’s disease, significantly impact daily life. Memory systems also exist in simpler organisms, demonstrating its evolutionary importance. For more information, visit Wikipedia: Memory.
