Nicotine stimulates the adrenal gland to release adrenaline and nor-adrenaline (catecholamines) into the blood circulation, which raises blood pressure and increases heart rate. Thus, A matches II.
Morphine is a very effective sedative and painkiller, often used for patients who have undergone surgery. Thus, B matches III.
Heroin is a depressant and slows down body functions. Thus, C matches IV.
Cocaine has a potent stimulating action on the central nervous system, producing a sense of euphoria and increased energy. Thus, D matches I.
