Explain two differences between procedural memory and episodic memory (4)

Due to this only being a 4 mark question, there is no need to include a lot of waffle. There are two marks for each explanation. Procedural memory is part of the long-term memory, this is responsible for essentially knowing how to do things in everyday life. This memory stores information on how to perform certain procedures, such as talking and walking. Episodic memory refers to memories of life events. A major difference between the two is that procedural memories are unavailable whereas episodic memories can be verbally expressed and are easier to research. Also, importantly procedural memories are potentially more resistant to amnesia. Each type of memory may also reside in a different area of the brain. This is a clear example and should receive 4/4 marks, there is no need to include this much information, but the more you include the better, as long as it ties back to the question.
