Consequences
By- Sachin Masan

2. What is Smoking?
• The action or habit of inhaling and exhaling the
smoke of tobacco or a drug.
• Smoking is a practice in which a substance is
burned and the resulting smoke breathed in to be
tasted and absorbed into the bloodstream. Most
commonly the substance is the dried leaves of
the tobacco plant which have been rolled into a
small square of rice paper to create a small,
round cylinder called a CIGARETTE. S

4. About Active and Passive Smoking

5. Active and Passive Smoking H
Active Smoking
• The active smoker is the guy
with the cigarette. Passive
smokers are the people upon
whom the smoke is inflicted.
• The factors of dose,
concentration, duration, and
host susceptibility all
contribute to the adverse
health effects observed in an
individual.
• It harms the person directly
and exposes him or her to
many health risks.
Passive Smoking
• Passive smoking is the inhalation
of smoke, called second-hand
smoke (SHS), or environmental
tobacco smoke (ETS), by persons
other than the intended "active"
smoker. It occurs when tobacco
smoke permeates any
environment, causing its
inhalation by people within that
environment. Exposure to
second-hand tobacco is more
dangerous than active smoking

6. About Vaping and Hookah

for vaporizing and smoking flavored tobacco, or
sometimes cannabis or opium, whose vapor or smoke is
passed through a water basin often glass-based before

• Remember, smoking is not only a bad habit—
it's an addiction. The drug inside tobacco that
people are addicted to is called nicotine. Just

doses of nicotine.
