b. a conditioned response.
c. an unconditioned response.
d. an unconditioned stimulus.

d. an unconditioned stimulus

Explanation:

Classical conditioning is a form of learning by associating stimulus to responses and by pairing them in order to learn.

In classical conditioning, first we have a stimulus that triggers a natural response by itself. This stimulus is called the unconditioned stimulus (US) and the natural response triggered is the unconditioned response (UR).

Later, we start presenting a stimulus that doesn't trigger any response by itself and we pair this stimulus with the unconditioned stimulus. This new stimulus is called the conditioned stimulus (CS), soon, after some repetitions, the response will start to show up in presence of the CS, and now the response is called conditioned response (CR).

In this example, Darrel was dancing and when one song started playing she gave him a kiss. The kiss would be the unconditioned stimulus that triggers the natural response of making him excited (unconditioned response). He paired this stimulus with the song (conditioned stimulus) and now every time he listens to the song (CS) he becomes mildly excited (conditioned response). Thus, in this example, the kiss is a unconditioned stimulus.

can you explain a little further maybe give multiple choice? ?
