A1 & 3 only

B2, 3 & 5 only

C2 & 4 only ✓ Correct

D1, 4 & 5 only

Correct answer: (C) 2 & 4 only

Explanation

Learning is selecting the appropriate response and connecting it with the stimulus (statement 2), the connectionist view.

Learning is a process of progressive behaviour adaptation (statement 4), a change that develops over time.

Learning is a time-pass activity (statement 1) is false, since learning is purposeful and results in change.

Learning is a pre-given insight (statement 3) is false, because insight is achieved, not innate and ready-made.

Learning is a byproduct of heredity and genetics (statement 5) is false, since learning results from experience and practice.

The stimulus-response bond in statement 2 reflects Thorndike's connectionism and his law of effect.
