Answer:

This question lacks options, options are:

a) classical conditioning

b) observational learning

c) spontaneous recovery

d) operant conditioning.  

The correct answer is a.

Explanation:

The classical conditioning theory derives from the experiments of the Russian physiologist Ivan Pavlov, he hypothesized that when any stimulus predicts the occurrence of another stimulus that triggers an automatic response, that first stimulus would acquire the ability to trigger that response, in other words , is a type of learning according to which an originally neutral stimulus, which does not provoke a response, becomes able to provoke it thanks to the associative connection of this stimulus with the stimulus that normally provokes said response. The conditioning of the immune response is built on the same principles of the classical conditioning paradigm described by Ivan P. Pavlov in which an environmental stimulus that by itself does not produce any immune reaction (conditioned stimulus), is associated with substances that stimulate or they suppress immune function (unconditioned stimulus), and finally, by presenting the conditioned stimulus alone, trigger the appropriate immune response.
