The correct answer is:

C. It acts as both a stimulant and a sedative

Explanation:

Once the nicotine is in the brain it stimulates receptors called cholinergic receptors. These receptors are adequate in other areas of the body such as the muscles, heart, adrenal glands, and other important organs. Nevertheless, these receptors are usually activated when they bind to a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine, which is produced in nerve endings of the brain and in the nerves of the PNS. Unlike acetylcholine, nicotine enters the brain and prevents its regular functioning.

rustworthy health-related websites should be frequently reviewed by medical professionals, even if the content doesn't change
igomit [66]
True because you never know when they’re going to be edited and you want to make sure the correct information is always being provided. If the wrong information is on those sites then people could do the wrong thing and possibly even die.

Simple. Person A adopted person B as his son...soon to realize he adopted his grandson. How could this happen? Person A's daughter died in a car crash, leaving person B an orphan.
