Why does Cognitive Load Theory posit that working memory has limited capacity?
Because biological constraints limit neuronal firing rates within working-memory-related brain regions.

Because long-term memory storage limits incoming information flow into working memory.
Because attentional resources are finite, limiting how much information can be processed at once.
