The best example of learning from the given options is

b. "A child flinches at the sight of lightning due to a fear of thunder."

  • This response indicates that the child has learned to associate the visual cue of lightning with the auditory cue of thunder, which might have been unpleasant or startling in past experiences. The behavior of flinching is not an automatic or innate response but is learned through experience, which is why it best aligns with the concept of learning.
