The dog that leans to associate the bell with salivation and food is a case of classical conditioning.What is classical conditioning?The idea of classical conditioning is that the individual is able to link up the unconditioned stimulus to the conditioned stimulus. This implies that the organism has been taught to link up a particular stimulus with another.Let us at this point recall the famous experience in the experiment of Pavlov. In this case, we know that a dog would always salivate if the dog smells the approach of food coming towards it.Imagine that we now have to ring a bell when we are bringing the food to the dog. So much so that the dog has been able to link up the bell with the fact that the food is approaching.It comes to a point that the dog would now salivate just at the sound of the bell even when the food is not in sight.Hence, in this case, the  unconditioned stimulus is the salivation while the conditioned stimulus is the bell that causes the salivation.Learn more about classical conditioning:https://brainly.com/question/12691454#SPJ1
