The Seven Sins of Memory

A chef preparing a meal glances at a recipe for a specific measurement (e.g., '1/2 teaspoon of salt'), holds that information in mind just long enough to measure it, and then forgets the exact amount moments later. Later, without any notes, the chef perfectly recreates a complex sauce they first learned to make 20 years ago. Which statement best analyzes the distinction between the two memory functions demonstrated?

Which of the following scenarios best illustrates the function of the memory system characterized by a vast capacity and a duration that can last for years or even a lifetime?
