During revision, a teacher investigates how much information Sam can hold in two memory tasks.
| Task | Result |
|---|---|
| 1 | Sam attends to 14 unrelated words shown once. When asked straight away, Sam recalls six words. |
| 2 | After rehearsal during the school year, Sam can still give 240 definitions from earlier and later topics. Learning newer definitions has not stopped Sam recalling the ones learned earlier in the year. |
Name the memory store that best accounts for each result.
