Florida Drug And Alcohol Traffic Awareness TSLAE Practice Exam

How is THC eliminated from the body?

Through the kidneys Through the liver Through sweating Through breathing

Correct Answer:

Through the liver

Explanation:

THC, the active component of marijuana, is primarily broken down in the liver through a process called metabolism. This means that it is transformed into other compounds that are then eliminated from the body through urine and feces. While a small portion of THC is also excreted through sweating and breathing, the main route of elimination is through the liver. This is why metabolites of THC can still be detected in urine and blood tests even after the effects of marijuana have worn off. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the primary mode of elimination for THC.
