The site is mainly about the causes of lung cancer. Smoking tobacco leads to more than 8 of 10 cases of lung cancer. The longer a person smokes, the higher the chance of getting lung cancer. If they stop smoking before the lung cancer can develop, the lung tissue returns to normal. Second hand smoke is also dangerous. Spouses of smokers have a 30% higher chance of developing lung cancer than spouses of non- smokers. There are low tar cigarettes, but there is no evidence of the cigarettes reducing the risk of lung cancer. Also, when it comes to smoking and family history, are both risk factors, but smoking is the only controllable factor.
http://www.cancer.org helped me understand who is affected by smokers. The site also gave me statistics I can use in my paper.
Questions:
1. How long does it take for lung cancer to take effect?
2. Why do smokers continue smoking when they know cigarettes can kill them?
3. What is the most dangerous element in cigarettes?American Cancer Society. 6 December 2006

MLA bibliographical information? You write, "This site," and I wonder what site? Include this. It is a necessity.
