Sleep plays a crucial role in consolidating long-term memory by facilitating the transfer of information from short-term to long-term storage. During deep sleep, the brain processes and reorganizes memories, strengthening neural connections. Additionally, REM sleep contributes to integrating new information with existing knowledge, enhancing overall learning. Thus, adequate sleep is essential for optimal cognitive function and memory retention.
Mozart does not improve long-term memory, however it does relax you and slow your heart rate right down.

Memory loss can be caused by many things including head trauma, dementia, medications, malnutrition and sleep deprivation. The effects can be short-term or long-term.
The conversion of short term memory to long term memory is called memory consolidation.
The same as an adult minus the legal implications. Short term: memory loss, hangovers, sleep deprivation, black outs. Long term: weight gain, alcoholism, sleep deprivation, death.
State - Dependent Memory **
During REM sleep, the brain processes and consolidates memories, helping to strengthen and store them for long-term retention. This relationship between REM sleep and memory consolidation is crucial for learning and cognitive function.
Two subsystems to long-term memory include semantic and episodic memory.

Long Term Memory
No
Short term memory is where you store stuff that you won't need for a very long time. Long term is the opposite.
