Answer: The correct answer is b) Negative Reinforcement.

Explanation:

Negative Reinforcement is done in operant conditioning when a stimulus that is unpleasant to the subject is removed in response to a stimulus.

Over time, the behavior expected to be reinforced should become more common over the expectation of having the unpleasant or aversive stimulus taken away.

Example:

On wednesday morning, you leave your house at 7am (the behavior) to avoid being late for work and getting a memo (removal of an aversive stimulus)

The correct answer is b. Operant conditioning through the removal of a (generally) unpleasant or aversive stimulus is known as: Negative reinforcement.
