Which of the following is NOT listed as a method of drug abuse in the material?

• A. Injection
• B. Ingestion
• C. Inhalation
• D. Transportation

Answer: (D)

Understanding how drugs are taken is the key idea. The material covers real methods of administering drugs to the body, such as injection (delivered through the bloodstream with a needle), ingestion (swallowing or consuming a substance), and inhalation (breathing in vapors, smoke, or aerosols). These are ways a person actually abuses or uses a drug.

Transportation, on the other hand, refers to moving or delivering drugs rather than consuming them. It describes how drugs might be moved, sold, or smuggled, not how a user administers them. Because it doesn’t describe a route of administration, it isn’t listed as a method of drug abuse in the material.
