A
response chain
B
aversive control
C
negative reinforcement
D
avoidance conditioning
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In classical conditioning, a conditioned response is a learned response to a previously neutral stimulus.

Detailed explanation-2: -After such a temporal pairing has occurred repeatedly, the conditioned stimulus itself produces a response. This learned response is known as the conditioned response (CR) and it can occur even in the absence of the unconditioned stimulus.

Detailed explanation-3: -Stimulus generalization occurs when a stimulus that is similar to an already-conditioned stimulus begins to produce the same response as the original stimulus does. Stimulus discrimination occurs when the organism learns to differentiate between the CS and other similar stimuli.

Detailed explanation-4: -Classical conditioning refers to learning that occurs when a neutral stimulus (e.g., a tone) becomes associated with a stimulus (e.g., food) that naturally produces a behavior. After the association is learned, the previously neutral stimulus is sufficient to produce the behavior.
