There are choices for this question namely:

<span>a.chemotherapy
b.antibiotics
c.analgesics
d.steroids

The correct answer is chemotherapy. Chemotherapeutic drugs such as Paclitaxel and Doxorubicin act on the cancer cells by interrupting various cellular processes that eventually lead to cell death. Cell death of malignancies are favorable but chemotherapeutic drugs are non-selective which means they have no way of being specific to cancer cells. These chemotherapeutic drugs also target healthy cells.</span>

How does marijuana affect you physically\
arsen [322]
Within a few minutes after inhaling marijuana smoke, a person’s heart rate speeds up, the breathing passages relax and become enlarged, and blood vessels in the eyes expand, making the eyes look bloodshot. The heart rate—normally 70 to 80 beats per minute—may increase by 20 to 50 beats per minute or may even double in some cases. Taking other drugs with marijuana can amplify this effect.
