Explanation:

• Question 1: Marijuana can have negative health consequences such as respiratory issues (from smoking it), potential impacts on cognitive development (especially in adolescents), and links to mental health problems in some cases. So the statement "Marijuana does not have negative health consequences" is a myth.
• Question 2: Marijuana is addictive. A significant number of users develop a dependence on it, which is characterized by withdrawal symptoms when they try to stop using, cravings, and difficulties in controlling use. So the statement "Marijuana is not addictive" is a myth.
• Question 3: Research shows that up to 30 percent of marijuana users can become dependent and develop a substance - use disorder. Also, using marijuana before age 18 (when the brain is still developing) greatly increases the risk of dependence. So this statement is a fact.
