Explanation of Solution

Behavior is the action made by an individual or an organism in coexistence with the environment of itself. Classical conditioning is the procedure of learning in which a biological stimulus is paired with previous stimulus. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a short term treatment for practical approach to problem solving. Fixed action pattern is predictable action caused by the key stimulus. Habituation is non associative learning, where innate response to stimulus gets diminished after prolonged and repeated exposure of stimulus. Imprinting is autonomic learning. It occurs at particular age only, especially in early years. Innate behavior is found in all organisms of a species. Only a particular stimulus is required to trigger this behavior. Learned behavior is the behavior caused in an organism due to experience. Operant conditioning is a learning method that leads to either reward or punishment for the behavior.
