Answer:

Based on this, you know that Sampson is using the whistle as a <u><em>secondary </em></u> reinforcer to train the dolphins.

Explanation:

Secondary Reinforcement can be described as a condition in which  a stimulus initiates a behavior after being previously associated with a primary reinforcer. A secondary reinforcement is a stimulus that satisfies basic survival instinct such as food, drinks, and clothing.

The same phenomenon was being used by Samson to train his dolphins to perform tasks. The dolphins enjoyed the sound of the whistle because previously that sound was paired to them getting their food.
