Question

José has a food allergy to almonds and gets very ill if he eats any food containing almonds. While at a wedding, José starts to eat a piece of cake, but when he gets it close to his nose he smells the presence of almonds and does not eat it. He later learns that there was almond extract used in the cake. Which of the following describe José’s ability to detect even the slightest presence of almonds?a. adaptiveb. a prepared responsec. a classically conditioned response

Answer 1

Answer:

Classically conditioned response

Explanation:

The concept of classical conditioned response entails the placement of a neutral signal to the occurrence of a natural reflex. The smell of the almond in this case is capable of producing the negative response to the food shown by Jose. In classical conditioned response, there is always an association between two stimuli, which then results in a response that is learned.
