Use at least four scholarly resources to address the following questions:
- How are memories formed in the brain (using neural circuitry), and how are they maintained?
- Given what we know about brain mechanisms in memory, are our memories accurate? Explain your answer using information on how memories are stored in the brain. Include an explanation of how working memory is similar to and different from long term memory.
