A three-month-old infant is shown a series of drawings, each of which shows a small object above a larger object of the same shape. After a while, the baby looks for shorter periods of time at each new version of the small-above-large pattern. Then, a test figure is shown consisting of the opposite pattern and the baby shows renewed interest. These results indicate that the baby
a.   was able to notice the patterns among objects, not just the shapes of objects.
b.   cannot yet habituate to "old" patterns and dishabituate to "new" patterns.
c.   is very intelligent, as the skills for this task are not present until 18 months of age.
d.   habituated to the specific objects that were shown, but not to the arrangement.
e.   paid attention to specific stimuli rather than patterns.
