The mirror neurons were first discovered on monkeys, and they were tested with fMRI (functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging) - so the correct answer is "MRI "monkey see monkey do" tests on monkeys performing tasks". This means that an MRI scan was performed as the monkeys watched people perform tasks.
