Hugh Barton · Answer 1

Callie has processed and memorized the information that she has gained about cows.

Explanation:

The brain of a toddler is rapidly developing and possesses a considerably good grasping capacity. They quickly learn any new information that is fed to them as their brain processes and imprints the information on itself. The brain unconsciously associates the information of the appearance, smell, and sound with each other to memorize the information correctly. The information processed by the brain is remembered later whenever a similar appearance, smell, or sound is encountered.
