SMOKING ON THE RESPIRATORY
SYSTEM
1. CHRONIC BRONCHITIS

4. TUBERCULOSIS
5. LUNG CANCER
WHAT HAPPENS TO RESPIRATORY
SYSTEM WHEN YOU SMOKE?

airways and the small air sacs (alveoli) found in
your lungs.
RESPIRATORY SYMPTOMS
DISEASE

 NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF CIGARETTE
SMOKING ON THE CIRCULATORY
SYSTEM
1. INCREASE HEART RATE AND BLOOD
PRESSURE
2. CORONARY HEART DISEASE

4. VASCULAR DISEASE
 WHAT HAPPENS TO CIRCULATORY
SYSTEM WHEN YOU SMOKE?
-Causes the blood vessels to tighten, which restricts the
flow of blood. Overtime, the narrowing along with the
damage in the blood vessels, can cause heart disease.
-the carbon monoxide present in the cigarette displaces
oxygen.

ankles.
Numbness, weakness, heaviness in muscles.
Restricted mobility
