Answer:

Extinction

Explanation:

In classical conditioning, the term extinction refers to the disappearance of a previously learned behavior.

Extinction usually happens when the behavior stops being reinforced or the individual goes through a process of 'unlearning' the behavior by starting making new associations until the original behavior does not longer appears.

In this example, <u>Jimmy got bitten by one dog and he started being scared of dogs, thus,</u><u> this is a learned behavior that he has</u><u>. However, he was exposed to dogs in safe settings and his fear has faded now: </u><u>Jimmy went through a process in which he 'unlearned' the behavior of fear and now this fear has faded. </u>

Therefore we can conclude that this is an example of Extinction.

You were biologically predisposed to associate taste and nausea.

Explanation:

The nausea and vomiting was caused by the new food ingested. It has nothing to do with the environment. The food isn’t compatible with the body system. This is the reason for the vomiting and when such individual tastes or smells the food, a signal is sent and the body reacts the same way as in the first encounter.
