Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Mnemonic devices are strategies designed to enhance memory through the use of either verbal cues or visual imagery to enrich encoding. Acronyms and serial-position identifiers are specific types of mnemonic devices, but they do not encompass all of them. Methods of loci are a specific type of mnemonic device that involves associating items to specific locations in a mental "memory palace".
