Answer 1

The response that best exemplifies classical conditioning is:

**Jennifer was in a terrible car accident last year. Now, even the sound of screeching tires can make her anxious and afraid.**

Classical conditioning involves learning through association, where a neutral stimulus (in this case, the sound of screeching tires) becomes associated with an emotional response (anxiety and fear) due to its pairings with an unconditioned stimulus (the car accident).
