Detailed explanation-1: -The correct option is (c ). (c ) Unconditioned stimulus is known to be a stimulus that has an automatic response. It does not require any prior learning. When this unconditioned stimulus is paired with a neutral stimulus, and then if it is presented several times it will elicit the conditioned response.
Detailed explanation-2: -Conditioned stimulus vs unconditioned stimulus The main difference between a conditioned and unconditioned stimulus is that an unconditioned stimulus is a reflexive response that can naturally trigger biologically involuntary behavior while a conditioned stimulus can only do this after conditioning.
Detailed explanation-3: -A conditioned response must be learned while an unconditioned response takes place with no learning. The conditioned response will only occur after an association has been made between an unconditioned stimulus and a conditioned stimulus.
Detailed explanation-4: -Using the terminology of the classical conditioning paradigm, the conditioned stimulus (CS) is a learned stimulus that can eventually trigger a conditioned response. For example, the sound of a bell is the conditioned stimulus in Pavlov’s experiment, and the dogs salivating would be the conditioned response.
Detailed explanation-5: -An unconditioned response is the naturally occurring response that follows the unconditioned stimulus. A conditioned stimulus is a neutral stimulus that, after being repeatedly presented prior to the unconditioned stimulus, evokes a similar response as the unconditioned stimulus.
