  4. Hippocampus - Wikipedia

    Damage to the hippocampus does not affect some types of memory, such as the ability to learn new skills (playing a musical instrument or solving certain types of puzzles, for example).

  8. Recognition memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recognition_memory

    A good test does not tap recognition memory, it wants to discern how well a person encoded and can recall a concept. If people rely on recognition for use on a memory test (such as multiple choice) they may recognize one of the options but this does not necessarily mean it is the correct answer. [94]
