Cognition
There are two kinds of memory which are defined on the basis of
how memory functions.
Skills memory involves muscular function. For instance, learning to write,
playing a musical instrument, and driving require muscular movements.
Declarative memory, involves only the functioning of brain. For
example remembering a face of a friend and recalling a telephone
number require declarative memory and does not involve any
muscular functioning.
