Question

Answer 1

The effect that is not one of nicotine's short-term effects is psychological dependence. Psychological dependence develops over time with repeated use, while the other effects listed—changes in the brain that can lead to addiction, increased blood pressure, and increased heart rate—are more immediate reactions that occur shortly after nicotine consumption.
