The answer is "decay theory".

Decay theory recommends that memory blurs because of the unimportant entry of time. Data is along these lines less accessible for later recovery over the long haul and memory, and memory quality, wears away. When we gain some new useful knowledge, a neurochemical "memory follow" is made.
