Explanation:

- Potential: This option refers to a possible or likely risk. Since quitting smoking can help reverse the risk, "potential" is appropriate to describe it.

- Impossible: This option suggests that the risk cannot be reversed, which is not aligned with the positive effect of quitting smoking as described.

- Nominal: This means minimal or insignificant, which doesn't match the context of reversing a significant health risk.

- Factual: This would indicate something that is true or based on facts, but it doesn’t connect with the idea of reversing risk.
