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.

WILL NAME BRAINEST<br> Why do people get depressed or upset after a break up?
vesna_86 [32]

It really depends on the situation. In most cases it's because you've emotionally attached yourself to a person and/or opened up to them. It also depends on the reason for the breakup. If you feel as though the relationship shouldn't have ended and you're still in love and/or still happy with that person you may question why they didn't want you, putting faults on yourself and making you look at yourself differently which can cause symptoms of depression or anxiety. Etc.
