You read about how learning preparedness influences the associations that an animal is capable of learning. You want to explore the learning preparedness of hamsters. How might you test the learning preparedness of this species?  

A.  Train hamsters to navigate a maze to reach a reward. Determine which hamsters are fastest -- thus, are most prepared to learn. B.  Train hamsters to navigate a maze to reach a reward. Determine the time of day at which the hamsters are fastest -- thus, most prepared to learn. C.  Train hamsters to choose between tunnels to find a reward. Switch the reward tunnel frequently, and determine which hamsters learn the new association the fastest. D.  Train hamsters to choose between tunnels to find a reward, and mark the tunnels with different visual, tactile, chemosensory or auditory stimuli to see which associations are learnable.
