Answer:

The correct answer is E. Sensory adaptation.

Explanation:

Sensory adaptation refers to the reduction of one's sensitivity to a  stimulus after being constantly exposed to it. The individual tends to have less awareness of the stimulus and this helps him/her to <em>change his/her focus</em> to other things.

In this case, Adrianne's first exposure is strong; the smell is strong and the apartment smelled horrible to her. However, the longer she was exposed to the smell, the more used she got to it and the less she smelled it.

This is an example of sensory adaptation.
