Final Answer : C, Explanation :  This phenomenon is explained by the serial position effect, which includes the primacy effect (better recall of items at the beginning of a list) and the recency effect (better recall of items at the end of a list). The items in the middle of the list, like the tenth word, are typically recalled less frequently.
