Peirce understood that the meaning of any sign is the sequence of significations that are
triggered. For example, a fire alarm might cause a person to imagine smoke, fire, and firetrucks.
The alarm might also signify actions to leave a building, and in some cases might elicit
excitement or fear. Peirce called this cascade of associations the:
a. interpretant.
b. signified.
c. index.
d. signifier.
