a. Benzodiazepines

b. Heroin

c. Mescaline

d. Amphetamines

Answer:Lisa is most likely to be addicted to Benzodiazepines. Correct option is A.

Explanation:

Lisa was not retired but was fired. Meaning she lost her job. This alone can cause her pains, anxiety and sleep disorders.In order to cope with some financial needs she had to suppress the sensation of pain it caused through the use of Benzodiazepines.

Benzodiazepines also called diazepam are used in treatment of psychological disorders, due to its effects on the neurons that trigger stress and anxiety reactions. The drugs contain chemicals that add to the calming effect already produced by the human body and keep the brain in a more tranquilized state. The misuse or prolonged use of this drug can lead to addiction and dependency. From the statement above , it wasn't stated that drugs where prescribed to Lisa by a Physician. The severe withdrawal symptoms occurs whenever she wants to quit.

Linear B was used by the _____ civilization
Lynna [10]
Linear B is a fascinating writing system that was used to write the Mycenaean Greek language. We don't know exactly how old it is, but it seems to have developed about 3,500 years ago. Scholars named it called Linear B because there's also an older version of it, which they call Linear A. Linguists still can't figure out how to read Linear A, and it's one of the great mysteries of classical studies.
