Question

Which of the following are the effects of tobacco, alcohol, smoking, on the digestive system?

Select the correct option:

• A. Only 1,2,3
• B. All 1,2,3,4,5
• C. Only 1,2,4,5
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C Only 1,2,4,5

When we consume any tobacco products, the mouth, pharynx, alimentary canal and other organs of the digestive system cannot function properly. It causes problems like vomiting, nausea, and headache. Besides, tobacco particles stick to teeth, gums and skin of the mouth cavity and slowly cause injury to those parts resulting in their dysfunction. This causes swelling of the gums and pain when moving the jaws. The pharynx and intestine become inflamed and the condition further progresses into cancer leading to death.
