Answer 1

C) spaced-responding DRL

Step-by-step explanation:

Spaced-responding DRL: In psychology, the term "spaced-responding DRL" is described as one of the variants of the "standard DRL" procedure and is being utilized whereby reinforcement is given following a specific response and if that specific response has been isolated from the former response through at least a fixed-minimum "time interval".
