Explanation:

Sensory adaptation occurs when our body's sensory receptors are exposed to an extended stimulus and eventually adapt to that stimulus and present a different response.

When a particular stimulus changes, the results can be shocking: jumping into a pool full of ice water on a hot day, for example. But remaining in the water will gradually cause you to acclimate to your temperature. Another example of sensory adaptation occurs when eating a spicy food. In principle, the experience can be unpleasant, even painful, but as you continue to eat, you get used to its spicy taste.

For this reason, we can say that, among the options given in the question above, the one that presents an example of sensory adaptation is " finding the cold water of a swimming pool warmer after you have been in it for a while ".
