As you might already know, habituation is where a living organism responds to a stimulus and is affected by it. Of course, over a period of time the organism gets accustomed to that stimulus and ignores it's presence.
For Example:
A person is walking down a road and hears a new sound, such as a new ring tone from an Iphone. Initially it draws the person's attention to it and as a result, becomes distracted. In time the person has got use to the sound. The person pays less attention to the noise and the response to the sound will gradually diminish. This diminished response is habituation.
I hope this has been a Help to you all! :)
