How can I transform this question into the affirmative sentence?

Professor Ng calls the urban myth the idea that being exposed to chemicals once can put us in danger
   or
Professor Ng calls the idea that being exposed to chemicals once can put us in danger by the urban myth?

Answer

Sal's answer is good, however, we should use the article "an" rather than (instead of) "the". Using "the" suggests that there is only one 'urban myth' in the whole world, when in fact there are thousands of urban myths. So, the best sentence, even though it is a long sentence, is:

Professor Ng calls the idea that being exposed to chemicals once can put us in danger, AN urban myth.

Answer

You could say:  Professor Ng calls the idea that being exposed to chemicals once can put us in danger the urban myth.

However, that sentence is a bit too long and I would write this instead: Professor Ng calls this idea the urban myth..
