Answer:

B. Conditioned stimulus

Step-by-step explanation:

The "learning" process occurs when a certain stimulus is associated with a certain outcome.

For example, let's say that initially a person give no reaction every time he hears the sound of a bell.

We place that person in a solitary room and suddenly surprise him with a loud sound from behind right after the sound of the bell. Over time, that person will associate the bell with the loud sound and will flinch every time He hears a bell. This is what considered to be the learned reaction.
