Smoking is the main culprit to make people fall prey to lung cancer .The two types of smoking both active and passive smoking are harmful and passive smoking is even more harmful than active and can cause cancer .While passive smoking if we inhale the cigarette smoke which is tobacco on the regular basis then the carcinogens present in cigarette leads to damage in the cells and tissue of the lungs and initiates the development of the lung cancer. The high amount of black liquid can be seen from the lungs of the smokers when squeezed and the shape of smoker’s lungs also becomes irregular over time.
