Being a high school student studying for exams can sometimes request long hours of study. During the long hours of study, a student makes use of different strategies and techniques to retain knowledge and uses System 1 and System 2 for a better achievement of the desired results. Which answer gives a good explanation of when and how the two Systems accomplish each other?

• When studying, a student relies on the successful habits he has been building since he was younger to recall previous knowledge, using System 1. System 1 relies on System 2 to take over when knowledge requires another strategy to gain new knowledge.
