Hot is when it is right out of the oven. The hot will eventually cool down. But, spicy is there always, and will not go away. (Unless you add something to cool it off)

So that is why the first blank is "alike", and the second is "are similar."

Hope this helped!

In Pavlov's classic study on classical conditioning, the bell was a ________ before conditioning and became a(n) ________ after
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

In Pavlov's classic study on classical conditioning, the bell was the <u>neutral stimulus </u>before conditioning and the <u>conditioned stimulus</u> after conditioning had occurred (option C).

Explanation:

Classical conditioning, proposed by Ivan Pavlov, establishes that two stimuli -one unconditioned that produces a response and one neutral- when associated, convert the neutral stimulus into a conditioned one with a response.

Pavlov's famous dog experiment laid the foundations of classical conditioning:

  • A dog is capable of salivating at the sight of food.
  • The same dog does not react to a bell.
  • When the dog is shown the food and the bell rings, in repeated opportunities, the only sound of the bell will make it salivate, what is a conditioned response.

The bell, a neutral stimulus, and salivation have become a conditioned stimulus and response, respectively.

Regarding other options:

<em>     a. A conditioned stimulus does not lead to an unconditioned one. </em>

<em>     b. A neutral stimulus does not result in reinforcement. </em>

<em>     c. Pavlov's experiment did not demonstrate the conversion of a conditioned stimulus into a neutral stimulus.</em>
