Intelligence and memory are inexorably connected. If you had no memory, that is, if you were absolutely devoid of any capacity for memory...you would be a potato.Even if all your senses were intact you would have no way of knowing it, and of course, neither would anybody else. Perception, reaction and cognition all require memory.  "...but memory is not a single thing. There are different types of memory, such as short-term memory and explicit memory. Memories are constructed through a complex process of information encoding, storage, and retrieval..." ( Ziegler, M. (2014).
