The Answer is The answer should include the following information: Classical conditioning is the process of learning an association between two stimuli. It involves pairing a neutral stimulus (a sign, Billy Bob's Burgers) with an unlearned, natural stimulus (food in the mouth; UCS) that automatically elicits a reflexive response (in this case, salivation; the UCR). If the two stimuli (sign + food) are repeatedly paired, eventually the neutral stimulus (sign; now the CS) elicits the same reflexive response (salivation; CR) as the natural food stimulus even if the food is not present.
