    B. sensory memory

    Explanation:

    According to the information processing model, there are three basic forms of memory storage, they are:

    1. Sensory memory.

    2. Short-term memory.

    3. Long-term memory.

    Sensory memory: This is the very first stage of the memory storage and it lasts for the shortest-term. Sensory memory retains various impressions of particular sensory information after the extinction of the original stimuli. It is used to transfer the memory in short-term memory.

    The sensory memory is of three types including iconic memory, echoic memory, and haptic memory.
