Answer:

C. Conditioned

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the reaction that the cat is having it seems that the cat has a conditioned response to the carrier being out. This means that the cat has a learned response that is directly associated with a certain stimuli which in this case is the carrier. Since he has a bad experience with the carrier before, he now reacts in a scared manner every time he sees it.
