Nicotine is only one of the many toxic chemicals inhaled while smoking. What effect can such toxic chemicals have on the body?

a) They stimulate an increase in height
b) They stimulate uncontrolled cell division
c) They eliminate carbon dioxide from cells
d) They eliminate chromosomes from many cells

Respuesta :

The effect of such toxic chemicals to the body is that they stimulate uncontrolled cell division. Uncontrolled cell division or cells proliferation may lead to cancer. The unchecked cell growth results to mutations in genes that can cause cancer by accelerating cell division rates or inhibiting normal controls on the system, such as cell cycle arrest or programmed cell death.
