A factor that would not affect reaction time is:
A
Tiredness
B
Gender
C
Age
D
Drug use
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The mean fastest reaction time recorded by men was significantly faster than women (p<0.001). At the 99.9% confidence level, neither men nor women can react in 100 ms, but they can react in as little as 109 ms and 121 ms, respectively.

Detailed explanation-2: -One of the factors which do not affect the rate of the reaction is temperature.

Detailed explanation-3: -Many factors have been shown to affect reaction time including gender, age, physical fitness, level of fatigue, distraction, alcohol, personality type, limb used for test, biological rhythm, and health and whether the stimulus is auditory or visual [5]. Reaction time is independent of social-cultural influences.

Detailed explanation-4: -Solution : Molecularity of a reaction is the number of atoms, ions or molecules that must collide with one another molecule simultaneously so as to result into that chemical reaction. It does not affect the rate of the reaction directly.
