            Short term memory, long term memory, and memory loss can be depended on your age. According to research people less than twenty years of age have better memory than people over twenty. The reason for this is that when you turn twenty you start slowly losing brain cells. And after years and years you start forgetting various things. So this really affects you short term and long term memory.

            When you are under twenty years old you should remember a lot of things. So it should be easy remember things from long ago and very easy to remember things that recently happened. But, when you get older it is much harder to remember things from long ago due to brain cell loss. But if you are in good health you should remember stuff that recently happened. Also aging may affect memory by changing the way the brain stores information and by making it harder to recall stored information. So this is how your age affects your memory.
