Explanation of Solution

Classical conditioning or Pavlovian conditioning is a behavioral kind of learning, which associated with two kinds of stimuli that learn one event and predict another response. Scientist Ivan Pavlov has demonstrated the classical conditioning in dogs. In this experiment, the dog gets salivated with the repeated hearing of bell sound for food. Even though, the dog gets salivated by hearing sound in the absence of the food. Thus it indicates that the classical conditioning is an association of paired stimuli for its behavioral response. In the experiment, subject M’s history room air conditioner as failed down and he attended the history classroom with sweat. The air conditioner as not repaired for a longtime. Days passed by subject M got used to the sweating in the history room, and everytime he goes to the history room, he sweats. The subject M’s conditioning is identified the US as heat, UR as sweating, the CS as history room, and CR as sweating.
