Teresa Baser · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : D, Explanation :  A response is learned in operant conditioning because it leads to a particular consequence. In operant conditioning, behaviors are strengthened or weakened based on the consequences they produce. When a behavior is followed by a desirable consequence (reinforcement), it is more likely to be repeated in the future. Therefore, behavior is shaped by the consequences that follow it.
