Explicit: declarative memory with conscious recall, facts and general knowledge ("semantic memory"), personally experienced events ("episodic memory"). Explicit memory contains facts and experiences that we can consciously "know" and "declare" to others.
Implicit: procedural memory without conscious recall, motor skills and cognitive skills ("muscle memory"), memories formed by classical and operant conditioning. Implicit memory is our retention of associations and "know-how" that is outside our conscious recollection.
Long-term memory is not a single, unified, conscious system. Instead, we have two memory systems operating in tandem. One system, called explicit memory, controls our conscious recall of facts and experiences. These memories are processed in the hippocampus and stored in various areas across the cortex. But even persons with damage to the hippocampus can learn some things through the implicit memory system. These memories are unconscious (that is, they can't be consciously recalled), but they are real memories for procedural skills (how to do something) and conditioned associations. These memories are mainly processed in the cerebellum.
Let's see if you can identify the characteristics of each long-term memory subsystem.
