Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The information about the concert was stored in Alice's short-term memory until she wrote it down in her notebook. Short-term memory can hold information for a brief period of time, usually up to 30 seconds, before it is either forgotten or transferred to long-term memory through rehearsal or other encoding processes.
