The endogenous cannabinoid receptors bind to components of cannabis like THC and CBD with greater affinity, and they exert a significant impact on mood and perception. The Sativa, Indica, and hybrid strains are named based on the plant's physical characteristics, but there are also Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3 strains for these types.

Summary
Nicotine binds to nicotinic receptors in the brain and body, which were named after the compound but already existed in the body due to the presence of naturally occurring chemicals like acetylcholine. Consumption of nicotine through smoking, dipping, snuffing, or vaping leads to the activation of these receptors.

Summary
THC and CBD bind to our naturally created cannabinoid receptors with much greater potency and effect than our endogenous cannabinoids, causing biological effects on mood, perception, the immune system, hunger, and more. Even if we never go near the cannabis plant, we have natural chemicals that park in these receptors, leading to biological effects.
