Classical and operant conditioning refers to a process of learning that involves rewarding an animal for a particular action while at the same time providing a separate and distinct stimulus. Pavlov's working giving dog food, which resulted in salivation while at the same time ringing a bell was repeated. Then he found just ringing the bell would elicit salivation. This Operant conditioning is used to train dolphins.
classical conditioning refers to the fundamental learning process which was first described by Ivan Pavlov. It is an event that automatically elicits a response when it is paired with another stimulus event that does not (a neutral stimulus)).After repeated pairings, the neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus that by itself can elicit the desired response.
