How our brains remember things ?

 Memory and processing in our brains are like a super duo. Memory helps us store and remember information, like our friends or how to drive a car. Processing, on the other hand, helps us make new things we learn to become reasonable. When we realize that we already know to new things, we can remember it more easily. Understanding how these two work together can make our learning and remembering things become much more easier.
