Question

question 5 of 10
which of these will make a risky situation even more dangerous for a teen?

a. having a phone

b. marijuana use

c. parental presence

d. daytime

Explanation:

• Option A: Having a phone can be a safety tool (e.g., for calling for help) and does not inherently increase danger in a risky situation for a teen.
• Option B: Marijuana use impairs judgment, coordination, and decision - making abilities. In a risky situation, these impairments can lead to more dangerous outcomes as the teen may not be able to respond appropriately to threats or make safe choices.
• Option C: Parental presence is likely to reduce danger as parents can provide guidance, supervision, and help in a risky situation.
• Option D: Daytime generally has more visibility and more people around, which is less likely to make a risky situation more dangerous compared to nighttime.

Answer:

B. Marijuana use
