Answer:conditioned stimulus

Explanation:In classical conditioning, the conditioned stimulus is a stimulus which doesn't occur automatically or natural but it has been learned due to the fact that it has been associated with an unconditioned stimulus.

Conditioned stimulus is a previously neutral stimulus which over time becomes a conditioned stimulus due to its association with an unconditioned stimulus .

For example Pavlov makes an example of whistling when one calls a dog for food , whistling is a neutral stimulus , that connects a dog with its food, over time a dog will start to salivate or drool when it hears a whistle just as it does when it sees it food , why? Because it has associated whistling with food (food being an unconditioned stimulus)

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Explanation:

The primary difference between these accounts is that a checking account's funds are your own money from deposits and a credit card account's funds are money loaned to you from the card's bank. This means that purchases made with a credit card can incur interest since it's borrowed money.
