DI believe because, she distinctively remembers seeing the different colored swan because they are usually white.

Answer: Distinctiveness

Explanation:

Distinctiveness can be defined as a distinct quality of any object or organism which makes it different from other organism or object.

In case of memory encoding the information is converted from a short term memory to a long term memory.

The distinctive things are observed and remembered by the brain for a longer period of time as compared to the normal objects or things.

hence, the correct answer is option D
