Question 1

Drugs that act on the cannabinoid system are called&#8230;&#10;A) THC.&#10;B) cannabinoids.&#10;C) cannabis-like drugs.&#10;D) cannabidol-like drugs.

Accepted Answer

Drugs that act on the cannabinoid system are called cannabinoids. THC is a specific cannabinoid found in cannabis plants, but not all drugs that act on the cannabinoid system are THC. Cannabis-like drugs and cannabidol-like drugs may also act on the cannabinoid system, but they are not the only drugs that do so.

Question 2

The following are features of using an e-cigarette instead of using cannabis products except&#8230;&#10;A) THC and/or other cannabinoids added to e-liquids.&#10;B) the compounds used in the e-liquid are vaporized.&#10;C) that nicotine in e-liquids weakens the effects of THC.&#10;D) this may be a safer means of inhaling cannabinoids than smoking a cannabis cigarette.

Accepted Answer

Nicotine in e-liquids does not weaken the effects of THC; instead, THC and nicotine can have separate effects. The presence of nicotine is related to e-cigarettes, and its interaction with THC from cannabis is not about weakening THC's effects.

Question 3

While THC is the most active psychoactive compound,the presence of other cannabinoids in cannabis suggests that&#8230;&#10;A) they all produce the same effects as THC.&#10;B) THC's effects require the presence of other cannabinoids.&#10;C) THC may not account for all of the effects of cannabis.&#10;D) they are likely inert substances that do not contribute to the effects of cannabis.

Accepted Answer

While THC is the most active psychoactive compound in cannabis, the presence of other cannabinoids suggests that THC may not account for all of the effects of cannabis. Other cannabinoids such as CBD, CBG, and CBN have been found to have various therapeutic effects and may contribute to the overall effects of cannabis. Therefore, option C is the best choice.
