Answer:

B

Explanation:

Priming

Priming is a technique in which the introduction of one stimulus influences how people respond to a subsequent stimulus. Priming works by starting an association or representation in memory just before another stimulus or task is introduced. This occurs without our conscious awareness, yet it can have a major impact on numerous aspects of our everyday lives.

For example, exposing someone to the word banana will make someone have a faster response to the word monkeynthan it would to unrelated words like car. Because monkey and banana are more closely linked in memory, people respond faster when the second word is presented. Thereforea cherry plum pit will like make people respond to brad pitt faster.
