Hypothesis

Nicotine, the main ingredient in the cigarettes,travel to the brain within 8 seconds of the first inhalation.This information found online encouraged me to ask this question, “How does nicotine affect the users mentally.According to the American Cancer Society,each year 443,600 people (1,215 each day) in the United States die from the effects of smoking. What nicotine does to the brain is it gets lodged onto the brain receptors and activates areas of the brain involved in producing feelings of pleasure and reward. The age group that I am focusing on is teens. Finding this I expect most of my respondents to choose cigarettes over any of the other necessities of life.
