Smoking cigarettes will kill you, but before you die, you could experience some pretty terrible diseases and health conditions from smoking. Here are some of the most gruesome diseases caused by smoking

1. lung cancer: More people die from lung cancer than any other type of cancer. Cigarette smoking is the number one risk factor for lung cancer; it's responsible for 87 percent of lung cancer deaths. Your chance of still being alive five years after being diagnosed is less than 1 in 5.

2. COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease): COPD is an obstructive lung disease that makes it hard to breathe. It causes serious long-term disability and early death. COPD starts by making it hard to be active, such as playing with a grandchild, then usually gets worse, until climbing a short set of stairs or even walking to get the mail is exhausting or impossible. It can leave people stuck in their homes, unable to do the things they want or see friends. About 80 percent of all COPD is caused by cigarette smoking. COPD is the third leading cause of death in the United States.

3. Heart Disease: Smoking harms nearly every organ in your body, including your heart. Smoking can cause blockages and narrowing in your arteries, which means less blood and oxygen flow to your heart. When cigarette consumption in the U.S. decreased, so did the rates of heart disease. Yet, heart disease still remains the number one cause of death in the U.S.

4. stroke: Because smoking affects your arteries, it can trigger stroke. A stroke happens when the blood supply to your brain is temporarily blocked. Brain cells are deprived of oxygen and start to die. A stroke can cause paralysis, slurred speech, altered brain function and death. Stroke is the fourth leading cause of death in the United States and a leading cause of adult disability.

5. Asthma: Asthma is a chronic lung disease that makes it harder to move air in and out of your lungs—otherwise known as "breathing." Because cigarette smoke irritates air passages, it can trigger sudden and severe asthma attacks. Asthma is a serious health condition that affects more than 26 million Americans. Smoking only makes it worse.

One of the main important factors that affect the blood alcohol concentration is the gender depending upon the person who is consuming alcohol is a male or a female

Hormones can also impact the way in which the alcohol is broken down in the body there are many other factors that affect the blood alcohol concentration like the the number of drinks consumed the weight the food in the stomach and the time in which the alcohol is consumed

Professor Black explains that genetics, diet, lifestyle, activity, and exposure to pollutants all play a role in the aging proce
adell [148]

Answer: The Generalised Slowing Hypothesis Theory

Explanation:

The Generalised Slowing Hypothesis is built upon wide observations in many studies of age related slowing and suggests that it is the primary contributor to the declines in cognitive functioning seen with aging.

As people age, B lymphocytes and T lymphocytes become less active. These cells secrete antibodies and are thus crucial to the immune system. T cells are made in the thymus which shrinks as aging occurs. Thus reducing the body's ability to fight infections as aging occurs.

Through the normal aging process, DNA is damaged by environmental factors such as pollutants and toxic agents. As a result, there is deletions of genetic material and mutations in DNA replicated in new cells. Reduced functioning in cells and tissues occur when these errors accumulate.

Also as aging occurs, glucose molecules attach themselves to proteins and form cross links. These crosslinks reduce the flexibility of tissues making them become stiff. The circulatory systems becomes less efficient since the tissues of the lungs, heart and arteries lose flexibility.
