## Step 1The question is asking about the impact of smoking on the risk of Coronary Heart Disease (CHD). The options provided are:- promoting dissolving of blood clots- damaging the inner lining of arteries- increasing oxygen level in the blood- decreasing carbon monoxide in the blood## Step 2We need to evaluate each option based on the known effects of smoking on the cardiovascular system.## Step 3The first option, "promoting dissolving of blood clots", is not a direct effect of smoking. While smoking can increase the risk of clot formation, it does not promote the dissolution of blood clots.## Step 4The second option, "damaging the inner lining of arteries", is a well-documented effect of smoking. Smoking damages the inner lining of arteries, leading to a condition called atherosclerosis. This condition increases the risk of CHD.## Step 5The third option, "increasing oxygen level in the blood", is not a direct effect of smoking. In fact, smoking decreases the oxygen level in the blood.## Step 6The fourth option, "decreasing carbon monoxide in the blood", is also not a direct effect of smoking. Smoking actually increases the level of carbon monoxide in the blood.
