For children who suffer from enuresis (chronic bedwetting), the pressure from a full bladder when the child is asleep is not sufficient to cause the child to awaken.An apparatus is wired to the child's bed such that when the child urinates during the night, a tone sounds to awaken the child.Eventually the child learns to awaken to pressure on the bladder, and can then urinate in the toilet.In this example, the CR is:
A)awakening to the tone
B)urinating in the bed
C)urinating in the toilet
D)awakening to pressure on the bladder
