hi.. .it is the carbon monoxide that binds to the Hb (haemoglobin),to form carboxyhaemoglobin. the nicotine tar gets accumulated in the alveoli of the lungs eventually leading to a condition called smoker's lungs. patients will present with early morning cough, rusty sputum and other symptoms of respiratory disease
