In the leaf of tobacco which of the following is found-

  • A.Capsaicin
  • B.Colchicine
  • C.Nicotine
  • D.Aspirin

Answer: C

The tobacco leaf contains nicotine, an alkaloid making up about 0.6 to 3 per cent of the dry weight.

The plant produces it in the roots and stores it in the leaves as a defence against insects; in humans it is the substance that makes smoking addictive.
