Best Answer

Lung cancer or any cancer for that matter takes place at the bodies cellular level. This involves your DNA and RNA. On an even deeper level it is amino acids that make up the different protiens that builds your DNA. The amino acids make the proteins that become our cells and at a predetermined time the cells shuts off. The order and number of the proteins determine the type of cell it is and it's job. Cancer cells are caused when this process gets screwed up and the proteins are alligned incorrectly. Instead of shutting off it goes into overdrive.
