To test the presence of classical conditioning, you need to present the conditioned stimulus (CS) repeatedly without the unconditioned stimulus (US) to see if the conditioned response (CR) still occurs. If the CR no longer occurs, then it was likely due to classical conditioning, and the CS did not have a true association with the US. Therefore, omitting the US (choice B) is the best option to test for the presence of classical conditioning.
