An average human inhales 388 cu.ft. of air per day. This is the amount of air that fits into the trucks of 3 sedans. Out of this only 19 cu.ft is made of oxygen. Rest is all a combination of other gases.
To a smoker lesser amounts of oxygen are available as compared to the non-smoker. A smoker's lung has less capacity to absorb oxygen than that of the non-smoker's.
