This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
As part of a study in auditory perception, a group of students was made to listen to a low-volume music track. When they first put on their headphones, they almost couldn’t hear anything. But as they became more attentive, the sound gradually became clearer. This is an example of _________.
a. retinal disparity
b. pitch increase
c. sensitization
d. subliminal stimulation
Answer:
This is an example of C. sensitization.
Explanation:
According to the given scenario, the sound was not altered. Its volume, its pitch - everything remained the same. There was, however, an alteration in people's perception of the sound, and that is due to a process known as sensitization. Sensitization happens when a certain stimulus becomes more effective because of repetition or continuation. That is, because people kept on listening to the sound, even though it was low, they were able to hear it after a while.

Answer: Male audiences might have found it ironic for a supposed courtesan to use love as the main theme.
Explanation:
Barbara Strozzi´s Amor dormiglione (Sleepyhead, Cupid!) is a lighthearted aria for soprano and lute that invokes the God of love.
Strozzi focused most of her works in secular music, especially arias with the theme of love.
Women Composers in Baroque Italy were not publicly recognized, because them showing off their talent was thought inappropriate.
Even though it has been implied that Barbara Strozzi was a courtesan, it hasn´t actually been confirmed.
