<u>Answer:</u>

The crinkling sound of the bag is the conditioned stimulus for the rabbit.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The rabbit has got acquainted with the fact that every single time the crinking sound is made, it is followed by a treat. Hence, any crinkling sound heard by the rabbit is processed as an indication of a treat on its way.
This is because the sound stimulates the senses of the rabbit.
The rabbit is unable to distinguish between the sounds of bags crinkling. Thus, it responds in the same way every single time it gets to hear a bag crinkling.
