Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Intermittent reinforcement schedules involve only reinforcing a behavior sometimes. This leads to more resistance to extinction because the individual has learned that the behavior sometimes results in a reward, so they keep trying even when the reward is no longer given consistently.
