Classical conditioning process involves the following phases:
1) Acquisition, in which the conditioned stimulus (CS) is paired with the unconditioned stimulus (US), resulting in the development of a conditioned response (CR).
2) Extinction, in which the CS is presented repeatedly without the US, leading to the disappearance of the CR.
3) Spontaneous recovery, in which the reappearance of the CR can occur after a rest period, without any further conditioning trials.

The correct sequence of these phases is Acquisition, Extinction, Spontaneous Recovery. Therefore, option B (Acquisition F1F1F1S1F1F1F10 extinction F1F1F1S1F1F1F10 spontaneous recovery) is the best choice as it arranges the phases of classical conditioning in this correct order.
