Is it true your lungs can clear the toxins of one cigarette in 24hrs?

My health teacher told our class that the average lungs can clear the toxins of one cigarette in 24hrs, is this true? Theoretically could I smoke one cigarette everyday and 10 yrs down the road have the same lungs as a nonsmoker?

    The road so dont really know if you smoke one cigarette day you only smoke alot can end.
