Answer:

2)  the hippocampus

Explanation:

The hippocampus, which is part of the limbic system, is a complex structure of the brain that plays an important role in learning, emotion, and memory. This fragile structure of the brain, which is located deep in the temporal lobe, is associated with memory formation. It is responsible for forming of new memories.
