Solution

The correct option is C Nicotine
The intoxicating substance in tobacco is Nicotine.
Nicotine abuse is unique because the drug’s intoxicating effects are less intense than most other substances. Although it is a stimulant, nicotine doesn’t produce the high levels of energy or euphoria that drugs like cocaine do. Nicotine does, however, stimulate adrenal glands, which causes a rise in blood pressure and respiration.
