Differentiate between declarative and procedural memories?
Declarative memories: All information pertaining to facts, names, dates, etc. are port of declarative memory. Example: A rickshaw has three wheels, or India became independent on August 15, 1947, a frog is an amphibian, etc. are parts of declarative memory. Facts retained in declarative memory are amenable to verbal descriptions.
Procedural memory: It refers to memories relating to procedures for accomplishing various tasks and skills. Example: How to ride a bicycle, how to make tea, how to play basketball, etc. The contents of procedural memory cannot be described easily.
