Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In classical conditioning, the US (unconditioned stimulus) and CS (conditioned stimulus) must be paired before conditioning can occur. The US naturally elicits a certain response (UR - unconditioned response) and when paired with a neutral CS, the CS starts to elicit a similar response (CR - conditioned response) after repeated pairings. Therefore, option B is the correct answer as it involves pairing the US and CS.
