Psychologists study learning by running rats through mazes, but biologists want to learn the actual mechanics of how a memory trace is laid down in a nerve cell or neuron.
This effect is more evident if the memory trace is laid down through deep encoding operations involving the recruitment of specific neural networks.
The process of recollection is often assumed to be a recall-like process, implying that the active search for the memory trace is similar, if not identical, for recall and recognition.
The nature of this imagery memory trace is yet to be fully explored.
The MTT proposes that a new hippocampus-dependent memory trace is created whenever an episode is retrieved.
Through such repeated subsequent replay of patterns of neural activity in a hippocampal-cortical network the specific memory trace is efficiently encoded and transformed into long-term memory.

The memory trace was written by shining light into the fly's brain and activating a special class of cells involved in learning how to avoid an electric shock.
If we avoid the homunculus by allowing that the remembering subject can just choose the right trace, then our trace theory is circular, for the abilities which the memory trace was meant to explain are now being invoked to explain the workings of the trace (Bursen 1978, pp. 52 60; Wilcox and Katz 1981, pp. 229 232; Sanders 1985, pp. 508 10).
It is also possible that perhaps distinct aspects of the memory trace are consolidated differentially during wake and sleep, resulting in combined better performance.
The claim we are considering is that there is a type of metamemory that correlates with the perceptual memory trace being conscious.
Performance on RR tasks can be explained in similar terms, by arguing that the preference for the less recent A stems from its memory trace being weaker than that of the more recent B. Moreover, as the delay between the sample trials and testing increases, the difference in preference between A and B declines [18].
