Adrianne forgot to change her cat litter. The apartment smelled horrible by the end of the day. However, the longer Adrianne was in the apartment the less she smelled the cat litter. What is occurring in this situation

Reason the longer she was exposed to the smell, the more she “adapted” and the less she smelled it, called sensory adaptation.
