Answer to Question 1

Answer: In classical conditioning, a neutral stimulus is repeatedly paired with a stimulus that produces a reflexive response. Eventually, the neutral stimulus becomes a conditional stimulus, able to elicit that reflexive response. Operant conditioning involves the delivery of a stimulus that modifies the behavior it follows. Each can be extinguished, and each involves the gradual acquisition of learning.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Learning allows an organism to adapt to new environments, to modify the behaviors that currently exist in its repertoire, and to develop new behaviors that will promote survival in that environment. The physical changes in the brain that occur during learning are our memories.
