Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Dishabituation is an infant's renewed interest in a stimulus after being habituated to it. Habituation refers to a decreasing response to a stimulus after repeated exposure. Disequilibration is a term used in Piaget's theory of cognitive development to describe the discomfort or confusion that occurs when a child encounters new information that conflicts with their existing schemas. Automaticity refers to the ability to perform tasks without conscious effort or attention.
