Posted on: 12/21/2011 Smoking can affect various parts of the body. First of all, cigarettes contain carcinogens, which are substances that cause cancer. The cancer that cigarettes are going to lead to is most very likely lung cancer. The organs that are going to be affected are for sure lungs. Lung cancer contains a process known as metastasis, which will spread the effect to other parts of the body.

Posted on: 01/21/2011 Why is your/the page - about the contents of a cigarette even up? It's a waste of time. People are searching for the WHOLE THING, not just some micro entry! Phooey. Thanks for the waste of time.
Lay it all out! The full and complete list of ALL the dangerous poisonous stuff or at least give a link to a page that DOES have it all. At this time, your page of cigarette contents is a pretender, an anemic version of what most are looking for.

Posted on: 05/12/2010 The cells of all living organisms normally divide and grow in a controlled manner. Cancer results when this control process is lost. A lump or tumour, known as the primary tumour can grow locally or spread to produce secondary tumours somewhere else in the body. This spreading process is called metastasis. |
