B) explicit memories.
C) iconic memories.
D) echoic memories.

Amnesia patients typically experience disruption of explicit memories, which are memories of facts and events that can be consciously retrieved and declared. Implicit memories, which are unconscious memories that influence behavior and performance without conscious awareness, are often preserved in individuals with amnesia. Iconic memories refer to visual sensory memory, while echoic memories refer to auditory sensory memory, both of which are short-term and not directly affected by amnesia.
