Along time ago, leslie was stuck in an elevator for more than three hours. though generally not claustrophobic, after two hours she felt like the elevator walls were closing in on her. now, 10 years later, she still vividly recalls the details of the emotionally traumatic experience. what is most likely causing her long-lasting robust memory of this event? a) stress hormones increase glucose activity, which then fuels brain activity. b) the hypothalamus boosts activity in the brain’s memory forming areas. c) she has a phobia about being in elevators. d) long-term potentiation causes her to relive the elevator experience over and over again.

a) Stress hormones increase glucose activity, which then fuels brain activity.

Explanation:

              Ten years before, Leslie went through an emotional trauma when she was stuck in an elevator for more than three hours.

              But now after ten years, she still vividly remembers the incident and still can feel the trauma she went through ten years ago.

              One of the main reason for Leslie's long-lasting robust memory of the event is that she tries to recall the incident, then she is able to experience the emotional trauma that she went through and this make the stress hormones to increase in her body. The stress hormones which was released increases the glucose activities in the body which activates her brain activity for which she can remember and can even feel the experience the trauma ten years later also.

Thus the correct answer is

a) Stress hormones increase glucose activity, which then fuels brain activity.
