Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The hunger triggered by hearing the brand name after repeated exposure to the TV ads is a conditioned response. This is because the consumers have learned to associate the brand name with the sensory experience of the ice cream, leading to hunger when they hear the brand name even without the direct stimulus of the ad.
