Pavlov's studies revealed that the dogs had learned to associate a neutral stimulus (such as the sound of a bell) with a reflexive response (such as salivation to the presentation of food). This means that the dogs had learned to associate one stimulus (the bell) with another stimulus (the food), rather than a behavior or a reward. Therefore, the best choice is D, "a stimulus with a stimulus."
