Answer: TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Any three of the following:

 Rebellion and experimentation - a desire to rebel against authority and to try recreational drugs
 Family exposure - twice as more likely to smoke if one or both parents smoke
 Aggressive marketing - advertising that directly reaches youth
 Desire to lose weight - nicotine's effect on lowering the appetite
 Stress - a perception that smoking reduces stress likely due to its effect on dopamine levels in the brain
