Half life (t ½) doesn’t depend on:
a) Biotransformation
b) Time of drug absorption
c) Concentration of a drug in plasma
d) Rate of drug elimination

The correct answer is (b) Time of drug absorption.
Half-life (t ½) is the time it takes for the concentration of a drug in the plasma to decrease by half. It is a measure of the rate of drug elimination.
Half-life depends on:
a) Biotransformation: The rate at which the drug is metabolized by the body.
c) Concentration of a drug in plasma: The higher the concentration, the faster the elimination.
d) Rate of drug elimination: The rate at which the drug is removed from the body.
