"Surprising" Phenomenon

Why do smokers who smoke one pack a day have identical levels of nicotine in their blod at the end of the day regardless of whether they smoke a pack of high-nicotine cigarettes or low-nicotine cigarettes?

Objective

The correct answer should give us a reason that the difference between high-nicotine packs and low-nicotine packs might not lead to a difference in nicotine levels in blood at the end of the day for smokers who smoke one pack.
