The answer is explicit memory and implicit memory.

Explanation:

Explicit memory refers to the information we can recall consciously. We might use it to remember dates, names or situations that occured in the past.

Implicit memory is any information that we don't intentionally store. Most commonly, it is related to processes such as riding a bike or playing a sport.
