Question
**Classical Conditioning Example:** 4. Sue came down with a stomach virus one day last month. For dinner that night, she ate lasagna. The next morning, she was extremely sick to her stomach. She now starts to feel sick to her stomach if she just smells lasagna. - NS (Neutral Stimulus): Lasagna (before association) - CS (Conditioned Stimulus): Smell of lasagna (after association) - US (Unconditioned Stimulus): Stomach virus - UR (Unconditioned Response): Feeling sick - CR (Conditioned Response): Feeling sick when smelling lasagna *Explanation of the Example:* Initially, lasagna was a neutral stimulus for Sue, without any particular response. However, after her experience with the stomach virus, the smell of lasagna (which coincided with her illness) became associated with feeling sick. Now, even in the absence of a virus, the smell of lasagna alone triggers a conditioned response of nausea due to this learned association.

Expert Solution
Step 1
In order to avoid being sick after eating a certain food, one must have acquired a taste aversion that has been conditioned.
Sue, in this instance, begins to associate the lasagna with a subsequent stomach virus-related illness.
