The sea slug Aplysia will withdraw its gills if it is squirted with water. If the squirts continue, as they do in nature, the withdrawal response will diminish. But if the sea slug receives an electric shock after being squirted, the withdrawal of the gills will grow stronger. This is an example of

When the sea slug Aplysia withdraw its gills if it is squirted with water. If the squirts continue, as they do in nature, the withdrawal response will diminish. But if the sea slug receives an electric shock after being squirted, the withdrawal of the gills will grow stronger.

It shows an example of Assciative learning.

Explanation:

Associative learning is a type o learning in which the individual establishes a link between two different experiences to reinforce them as well as to increase the meaning of the experiences.
