To determine the correct answer, we need to identify the short term effects of tobacco and then exclude one of those effects from the provided options.
Short term effects of tobacco use include:
1. Nicotine addiction: Nicotine is a highly addictive substance found in tobacco products. It can quickly lead to addiction and dependence.
2. Yellowed teeth: Tobacco contains chemicals that can stain and discolor teeth, causing them to appear yellow or brown.
3. Weakened immune system: Smoking weakens the immune system, making the body more susceptible to infections and illnesses.
4. Dulled taste buds: Smoking can dull the sense of taste over time, making it difficult to fully enjoy the flavors of food.
5. Bad breath: Tobacco use contributes to bad breath, often referred to as smoker's breath, which can be persistent and unpleasant.
Now, evaluating the given options, we can see that all the effects mentioned (nicotine addiction, yellowed teeth, weakened immune system, dulled taste buds, bad breath) are short term effects of tobacco except for one. Thus, the answer is "None of the above" or "Not applicable" since all the listed effects are short term effects of tobacco.
