In Pavlov's experiment with the bell and the food, what is the dependent variable

A. Pairing the food and the bell
B. giving the food
C. ringing of the bell
D. salivation

I picked B

Well, slober was dependent on the bell...

To determine the dependent variable in Pavlov's experiment with the bell and the food, we need to understand what the experiment was trying to measure. In this case, Pavlov was studying the concept of classical conditioning and specifically how an organism (in this case, a dog) can associate a neutral stimulus (the bell) with an unconditioned stimulus (the food), eventually eliciting a response (salivation) even without the presence of the original stimulus (the food).

In this experiment, the dependent variable is the response or behavior that Pavlov was measuring, which is salivation. The dependent variable is the outcome that is being influenced or affected by the independent variable, which in this case is the pairing of the bell with the food.

So, the correct answer in this case would be D. salivation.
