Globally, more than a billion people are addicted to nicotine, and more than 100 million are addicted to alcohol.

The nightshade family of plants naturally generate the alkaloid nicotine, which is extensively used recreationally as a stimulant and anxiolytic. Within seconds after inhaling nicotine, it reaches the brain. Nicotine enhances the release of neurotransmitters, brain chemicals that help control mood and behaviour.

Alcohol, often known by its chemical name ethanol, is a psychoactive substance found in alcoholic beverages like beer, wine, and distilled spirits.

Alcohol can change how the brain functions and looks by interfering with the brain's communication networks.

Nookie1986 [14]
Either shoes or skinny jeans, I'd go with shoes. Xavier would grow in both height and weight as he goes through the growth spurt. As his height grows, his foot will grow accordingly as he needs support for his enlarging body. So he would need shoes prior to all others.

How did human creatures get transformed into a social being
Volgvan

Answer:

To increase our survival chance.

Explanation:

In order to survive in the harsh environment, Humans generally need to do 2 things : fulfill our basic needs and defend ourselves from external threats.

Both of them would be much easier if Humans are working together in a group.

For example, during hunter/gatherer eras, catching animals that can run faster than humans will be much easier if we have teammates to surround the prey rather than working alone.

On top that, being in a group also provide better protection from the attacks of wild animals or other humans. This is why human creatures get transformed into a social being.
