Answer:

The correct answer is There will be no real change in the sales of those subliminally advertised items.

Step-by-step explanation:

Subliminal advertising is one whose message is transmitted below the threshold of consciousness, whether using images, sounds or other techniques that are not readily noticeable. The objective of this type of advertising is to influence the wishes of consumers by generating impulses and needs that encourage them to buy or perform a certain marketing action, but without being aware of that influence.
