Answer:

The answer is c. stimulus discrimination.

Explanation:

Stimulus discrimination occurs when a person or animal is able to differentiate a stimulus from other ones that are similar. For example, if a dog is conditioned to respond to the sound of a bell before eating, discrimination would occur if it did NOT respond to other similar sounds.

In contrast, generalization takes place when the subject responds in the same way to similar stimulus.
