Answer to Question 1

As compared to cigarettes, cigars have higher levels of carcinogens and other toxins, and more tar. One cigar has as much nicotine as several cigarettes, and once inhaled, the nicotine is absorbed as rapidly. Like cigarette smokers, cigar smokers are at risk for cancers of the lung, oral cavity, larynx, esophagus, and possibly pancreas.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
