diamong [38]

The statement that is correct about plasma membranes is that both plant cells and animal cells have flexible plasma membranes (option C).

<h3>What is the plasma membrane?</h3>

Plasma membrane is the semipermeable membrane that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell. The semi-permeability of the plasma membrane means it allows some molecules through but blocks other substances.

The plasma membrane is the cellular structure that protects and encompasses the cell's content.

All living organisms possess the plasma membrane, which is also called cell membrane.

Therefore, the statement that is correct about plasma membranes is that both plant cells and animal cells have flexible plasma membranes.

What is the fastest way to administer nicotine to the brain?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

d. Smoking

Explanation:

Nicotine is a chemical found in many plants such as tobacco. It is one of the 4000 chemicals that tobacco presents and the main component that acts in the brain.

This chemical is absorbed through the skin and lining of the mucosa of the nose and mouth, or in the lungs by prior inhalation. Nicotine can quickly reach the bloodstream and brain and reach maximum levels. The action of smoking cigarettes causes nicotine to reach the brain in just 10 seconds after inhalation. Although the acute effects dissipate in a few minutes, they cause the need to continue the intake of the substance (addiction)
