Rahul Dutta · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : D, Explanation :  Classical conditioning involves pairing a neutral stimulus with a meaningful stimulus in order to elicit a particular response. In this case, the neutral stimulus (the smell of aftershave) is paired with the meaningful stimulus (the presence of the child's father). Over time, the child learns to associate the smell of aftershave with positive feelings and thus develops a positive emotional response to that particular scent.
