    Water memory Water memory is the claimed ability of water to retain a "memory" of substances previously dissolved in it to arbitrary dilution. No scientific evidence supports this claim. Shaking the water at each stage of a serial dilution is claimed to be necessary for an effect to occur.  The concept was proposed by Jacques Benveniste to explain the purported therapeutic powers of homeopathic remedies‚ which are prepared by diluting solutions to such a high degree that not even a single molecule

In the same way‚ work bench memory has limited duration but

    Working Memory When understanding many of these processes one can understand why short-term memory is better considered working memory. Baddeley and Hitch came up with a working memory model. This model consists of a phonological loop and a visuospatial scratchpad that is controlled by a central executive processor. There are other theories of working memory; most of which built off of this particular model the Baddeley-Hitch Model. Baddeley and Hitch basically explains how working memory performs

    Random Access Memory – RAM. Where information is stored temporarily when a program is run. Information is automatically pulled into memory‚ we cannot control this. RAM is cleared automatically when the computer is shutdown or rebooted. RAM is volatile (non-permanent). b. Read Only Memory – ROM. More permanent than RAM. Data stored in these chips is nonvolatile -- it is not lost when power is removed. Data stored in these chips is either unchangeable or requires a special operation to change

They made a hypothesis that memory consolidation is time dependent and require regulating from our brain cell which leads to further development in memory consolidation theory nowadays. (McGaugn‚ 2000.) According to “Neurology board review:

    Alan Baddley’s working memory model explains what goes on inside the short-term memory and the working memory. It consists of two temporary storages for short-term memory depending on the type of information. The visuospatial sketchpad stores the visual and spatial images for manipulation. The phonological loop maintains auditory memory by speech rehearsal. Visual/spatial images and auditory information are stored in separate locations in working memory. Another component in Baddley’s model is the
