The answer is letter A.
Both echoic and iconic memories
are part of the sensory memory. Sensory memory refers to an individual’s
ability to retain impression of sensory information for a brief time after the
original stimulus has ceased. It is an automatic response that is considered to
be outside of cognitive control. Iconic and Echoic memories are types of
sensory memories. Iconic memories are inputs to the visual systems that last
for a duration of 100 milliseconds; while echoic memories are inputs to the
auditory system that can only hold information for about 3-4 seconds.
