    Answer: option B) discovered this learning process through intuition.

    Explanation:

    Ivan Pavlov's research findings were based on coincidence i. e happened by chance, not exactly intended.

    The classical conditioning research were as follows:

    - He observed that the mouth of a dog became wet when given food

    - He also noticed that ringing a bell before giving the dog its food made it salivate

    - Then, the dog associated the bell with the food, salivating always when a bell is rung.

    Thus, Pavlov's learning process were unintended, absolutely accidental and discovered by intuition rather than logic. Thus, the statement that it contained an element of serendipity
