Janine just heard a story about sharks. from the story, she learned that sharks live in the ocean and are good swimmers. when asked if sharks can live on land, she uses her new information combined with her prior knowledge about other fish—that they have gills and extract oxygen from the water—to answer the question. her new and existing knowledge are processed in memorya. working memory. b. short-term memory. c. sensory memory. d. long-term memory.

Working memory.

Explanation:

Working memory is a cognitive system with a limited capacity that temporarily stores and manages the information that we need to carry out certain tasks, such as learning, reasoning and understanding; which is what Janine uses here with her new and existing knowledge. Part of that working memory, that is held for a short period of time while needed, may then be transferred into long-term memory.
