Answer 1

Answer: d. reverted to washing the coins instead, in accordance with its natural approach to food.

Step-by-step explanation:

Timulus discrimination is the tendency to lack a conditioned response to a new stimulus that is similar to the original conditioned stimulus. A higher order conditioning occurs when a neutral stimulus comes to act as a conditioned stimulus when combined with another stimulus that already evokes a conditioned response.
