Why did some stores use transparent units to display the cigarettes?
a)to comply with the new rules while still encouraging cigarette purchases via visual exposure. b)to ensure children and minors are not exposed to cigarettes and their eye-catching packaging. c)to minimize exposure to humidity, extending the shelf life of the cigarettes' tobacco. d)to reduce the occurrence of shoplifting, since cigarettes are high-revenue items

The correct answer is A) To comply with the new rules while still encouraging cigarette purchases via visual exposure.

Explanation:

Many of the shop owners used to place the cigarette on the counter and some of them place cigarette next to candies which shows that they want to attract young children towards these tobacco products to sell these products and get more money.

After the ban on counter display of these tobacco products some stores now use transparent units so that they can display these cigarettes which are now becoming a new marketing strategy for tobacco products.  

Therefore to comply with new rules while still encouraging the purchases of cigarettes through visual exposure some shops are using transparent units to display cigarette brands.
