Answer:
A. Startle
Explanation:
Irritating and punishing an animal will only make it dislike you. Frightening an animal for an extended period may cause it to permanently fear you and other humans. Startling an animal (by clapping or saying NO) momentarily increases its heart rate and adrenaline, the animal then links the bad action to the uncomfortable feeling of being startled.
