Drug#1: Marijuana

Marijuana is a drug used for medicine or personal uses that is made from part of a plant called Cannabis. Short-term side effects may include a decrease in short-term memory, dry mouth, impaired motor skills, red eyes, and feelings of paranoia or anxiety. Long-term side effects may include addiction, decreased mental ability in those who started as teenagers, and behavioral problems in children whose mothers used cannabis during pregnancy. There is a strong relation between cannabis use and the risk of psychosis.

Drug #2: Crack Cocaine

Crack cocaine, also known simply as crack or rock, is a free base form of cocaine that can be smoked. Crack offers a short but intense high to smokers. The Manual of Adolescent Substance Abuse Treatment calls it the most addictive form of cocaine. Crack cocaine is commonly used as a recreational drug. Effects of crack cocaine include euphoria, supreme confidence, loss of appetite, insomnia, alertness, increased energy, a craving for more cocaine, and potential paranoia (ending after use). Crack is such a strong stimulant that it creates severe stresses on the heart, the vascular system, the lungs and the brain. Blood vessels constrict from the stimulation of the drug and over time, can harden. Then when further stimulation occurs, these damaged blood vessels can rupture, leading to a stroke. Damage to the heart can lead to a fatal heart attack or cardiac arrest.

liq [111]

Answer:

phototropism

Explanation:

Phototropism is the phenomenon that is causing the bean seedling to bend as shown.

Phototropism is known to be the growth of a plant or an organism in response to a light stimulus. This means that plants or organisms grow in the direction of the light. From the image shown, we will discover that the bean seedling is bending towards the direction of the sunlight.

This phenomenon usually occur in plants but it can also occur in organisms in fungi.

When the plants grow towards the direction of sunlight, it is known as positive phototropism while when the plants move away from the direction of sunlight, it is known as negative phototropism (skototropism).
