The answer is B. It can be caused by cigarette smoking (and yes, to no green thumbs..there is lung cancer not caused by smoking, but smoking CAN cause it....it doesn't mean everyone who has it got it from smoking, read the question/answer right).

Cancer can be treated, but there is no cure.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer.

Lung cancer is not hereditary.

ALL OF THE ABOVE! I just lost my grandpa to lung cancer, it was awful. He smoked since he was like 16 but quit 25 years ago! I don't ever even remember him smoking. His father died the same way and was a smoker. So that makes me believe it's also hereditary. I have some family in holland that smoke like chimmneys and they never get sick, so it's all in your genes. It is not only the most deadly it is also the least funded. If you want to donate, here's a good org www.lungevity.org. God Bless!

all of the answers are true

(a) states that it is possible for it not to come from cigarette smoking. meaning that everyone who has lung cancer does not necessarily smoke.

B, the are no known cures for cancer. Cancers are caused by cells mutated by carcinogens, viruses or ionizing radiation.

B C

Smokeing # 1 cause

Radon # 2 cause

Exposure # 3 cause

A. My great grandfather is 91 and still smokes like a chimney.
All cancers are caused by viruses.
