Final Answer :
Pavlov would ring a bell each time the dog was fed. Eventually the dog would salivate every time the bell was rung, even though no food was presented. In this experiment, food was the unconditioned stimulus while the sound of the bell was a conditioned stimulus that brings about the salivation response.
