Because of this, she starts to anticipate this coldness that she even starts to shiver before she enters the room. Associating two events together is part of classical conditioning.

2) For this item, the type of conditioning shown is called operant conditioning. Operant conditioning is defined as having a change in behavior because of a reinforcement or a punishment. In this case, Jake is met with a punishment in the form of the ticket that's why his behavior changed.

3) This item is also an example of classical conditioning. Because you really disliked the sheep's brain, you started changing your behavior towards it that even something only similar to the brain makes you react unpleasantly. Here, you associated the brain (or the sight of something similar) to your very unpleasant experience in biology.
