C) Non-associative learning is adaptive because it allows us to function on a day-to-day basis (habituation allows us to ignore unimportant stimuli so we can focus attention elsewhere) and also prepares us to respond to an important situation (tells us when we need to pay attention to a stimulus we have experienced many times before).
