The essence of learning is in understanding associations, such as between the sound of water and being able to quench one's thirst. In _, an initially neutral stimulus comes to elicit a response because it has been repeatedly paired with another stimulus that automatically produces that response.

The correct answer is a) classical conditioning; predicts

The essence of learning is in understanding associations, such as between the sound of water and being able to quench one's thirst. In classical conditioning, an initially neutral stimulus comes to elicit a response because it has been repeatedly paired with another stimulus that automatically produces that response. In other words, you learn that one stimulus predicts another stimulus.

Explanation:

Classical conditioning is a learning process by which a person learns to respond to a stimulus that previously did not respond by association with another stimulus that produced that response, that is, in classical conditioning, the learning process occurs through association of an initial stimulus that elicits in the body a regular and measurable (predictable) response, with a neutral, non-responsive event prior to conditioning. Classical conditioning involves forming an association between two stimuli that results in a learned response.

Explanation:

Living beings behavior are constantly changing as there are changes happening inside or outside the space in which they live, as the different stimulus are always accompanied by the very specific nature of actions that happen due to the operations carried by the living being under consideration.
