What lung or mouth disease is NOT known to be caused by smoking?
Apnea is not a "disease"! Apnea is a symptom of either a condition or a disease. Apnea is a temporary lack of breathing during sleep or during altered consciousness (such as during pre or post surgery). Sleep apnea or obstructive apnea can have numerous causes, including as a reaction to respiratory depressant medications (example, narcotics, even when given in the hospital), illegal drug use, obesity, throat problems, or a co-existing lung disease, acute illness, etc.
The symptom of apnea has nothing to do with smoking.
As to mouth, most oral infections such as yeast (which causes oral thrush) or viral infections (like Herpes Cold Sores) have nothing to do with smoking.
Are cigars more addictive than cigarettes?
Cigars are WAY better than cigarettes because they are bigger and are more tastier. Another thought: I would not consider cigars addicting, though they do contain nicotine. The nicotine is absorbed into the mouth. Habit forming? Yes, cigars can be habit forming.

Why do people who smoke smack the cigarette box before they open it?
Because they want to call attention to how "cool" they are.
There is a myth that by slapping the box you can compress the tobacco to get a more even burn. This isn't true though and you often end up loosing a lot of tobacco from each cigarette.
A cigarette is meant to be smoked how they are sold so don't buy into any of that crap about having to spank the box to get a better smoking experience. Anyone who tells you otherwise is probably still in high school and is just imitating what they see on TV.

Why do cigarettes filters have dots on them?
The filter is perforated with tiny holes that dilute the smoke with air. As such, the inhaled smoke contains less tar and nicotine. In theory, this should make the cigarette "safer" than full flavor ones. In practice, however, the average smoker compensates by inhaling more deeply or by covering parts of the holes with fingers or lips.

A petrol station sells highly inflammable petrol. This produces fumes when people are filling their vehicles and someone smoking could ignite these fumes causing an explosion.

I can't think of any reason why they would use fake cigarettes on TV and film. Enough people smoke so that the actors who want to smoke can smoke onscreen. People who do not smoke just don't light up cigarettes in front of the camera.
What happens to your body when you smoke weed?
It can make you notice small perceptual details that you didn't before -- colors get more vivid, that sort of thing. It can also create mild euphoria and a sense of silliness, as well as a mistaken impression of beauty or artistic or philosophical significance. And it can cause the "munchines" -- a powerful desire to eat. Some 15% of marijuana users find it addictive. It can interfere with your memory and motivation. It can make your heart pound. Sometimes it can make you paranoid or make you hallucinate. It is also a powerful gateway drug and reduces reaction time, hence is hazardous to use while driving. Studies show that marijuana can have side effects such as gynecomastia, breast growth in males.

About how many people smoke cigarettes in the US?

What is the nicotine content of the average cigarette?
The nicotine ontent in an average cigarette will be around 2.5 to 3.2mg. I believe a Virginia Slim Ultralight has about 2.5mg, and a Newport 100 has about 3.2mg.
I could be reading your explanation in a way you may not have intended, however, I believe you may be combining two facts about nicotine into one definition, when in reality, they have little to do with one another. Yes, in the past, nicotine was widely used as an insecticide due to the fact that it functions as an antiherbivore chemical, with particular specificity to insects. This information refers to the biosynthesis taking place in the roots, and accumulation in the leaves of the dry plant from which it comes. This information has very little to do with the consumption of nicotine in traditional cigarettes. The correct formula for Nicotine is C10 H14 N2. An average cigarette yields about 1-3 mg of absorbednicotine, although you will see a much higher dosage often stated on the packaging, normally a range of 10-15 mg. This higher dosage is NOT referring to the INHALED ABSORBED amount a smoker will receive once it is burned, and converted to a smoke form capable of being inhaled. Also, you may notice that the nicotine patch is available in it's most common dosage, 21mg, however, only approximately 1-2mg of nicotine will actually be absorbed into the bloodstream. There are many factors that are to be considered when assessing the amount of nicotine the body will absorb. The type of tobacco, whether the smoke is inhaled, and whether a filter is used, are all things to be considered. Also, chewing tobacco, dipping tobacco, snus, and snuff all have a much higher amount of nicotine released into the body.
