Explanation:

Question 24

Prescription drugs are defined as medications that require a doctor's prescription (authorization) to be obtained legally, so the statement "Prescription drugs can only be obtained with a doctor’s authorization" is True. The selected "False" is incorrect.

Vaping is not completely harmless. Vaping products contain chemicals and can have negative health effects, including lung damage and other health issues. So the statement "Vaping is a completely harmless alternative to smoking" is False, and the selected answer is correct.

Decision - making about drug use is influenced by social and personal factors. Peer pressure (social influence from peers), family values (values instilled by family), and personal beliefs (individual's own ideas about drugs) are major influencers. Option a (lack of information) can be a factor but is not as comprehensive as option b. Option c (isolation from society) and option d (ignoring external factors) are not primary influencers of drug - use decision - making. The selected option b is correct.

Answer:

A. True
