Final Answer : D, Explanation :  Classical conditioning is the process by which an organism learns to associate a neutral stimulus with a biologically significant stimulus, leading to a conditioned response. Fear of the dentist is a common example of classical conditioning, where the sights and sounds of a dental office become associated with the unpleasant experience of receiving dental treatment, leading to fear and anxiety in future visits. Children can be easily conditioned to fear the dentist if they have a negative experience in the office, and avoids similar situations in the future.
