An English teacher gave his students an assignment to write an essay describing a memory of an event that occurred in their lives before they were three years of age. Many of the students told him that they couldn't complete the assignment. This is not surprising, mainly because
A) there are too many retrieval problems for information stored in long-term memory for that length of time.
B) research on infantile amnesia indicates that people have no memories of their experiences prior to three years of age.
C) the limited space in the short-term memory causes very old information to be removed to make room for newer information.
D) infants and young children cannot remember specific events because of their reliance on semantic memory.
