Question

Austin Welborn · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : D, Explanation :  This type of learning is known as taste aversion. It occurs when an organism eats something and then falls ill. Even if the illness occurs hours later, the organism can develop an aversion to the taste of the food that made it ill. This form of learning is particularly robust and can occur with a significant time gap between the eating of the food and the onset of illness, demonstrating the body's protective mechanism against poisoning.
