Answer:

Classical conditioning

Step-by-step explanation:

Sam is trying to condition his dog to salivate to a bell. He rings the bell and immediately after, while the bell is still ringing, he places food in the dog's mouth. Sam is using classical conditioning.

With the continued use of this conditioning, the dog with time will learn to associate ringing of bell to its feeding time.
