crack is regarded as more addictive than cocaine because it is ______.
cheaper, so people can afford more of it
smokable, so it reaches the brain more quickly
easier to get, so people can take more at once
frequently smoked in combination with pharmaceuticals
clear selection

Explanation:

Crack's higher addictive potential stems from its route of administration: when smoked, it is rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream and crosses the blood-brain barrier nearly instantly. This quick delivery to the brain creates an intense, immediate high, which drives stronger compulsive use and addiction compared to non-smoked cocaine forms. Other options do not address the core biological reason for its increased addictiveness.

Answer:

smokable, so it reaches the brain more quickly
