Which outcome does not challenge the stimulus substitution model of classical conditioning?
A) A conditioned response that is different from the unconditioned response (e.g., drug tolerance versus drug effect)
B) A conditioned stimulus that affects the form or topography of the conditioned response (e.g., orientation versus rearing)
C) Seeing a conditioned afterimage
D) A conditioned stimulus that produces a conditioned response strongly resembling the unconditioned response

The stimulus substitution model of classical conditioning suggests that the conditioned stimulus (CS) becomes a substitute for the unconditioned stimulus (US), leading to a conditioned response (CR) that closely resembles the unconditioned response (UR). Therefore, a conditioned stimulus producing a conditioned response that strongly resembles the unconditioned response does not challenge this model, as it aligns with the theory's expectations.
