  2. asphyxiation: The process of depriving someone or something of oxygen, leading to unconsciousness or death.

  3. hypoxia: A condition in which there is a decrease in the amount of oxygen that reaches the body's tissues. Hypoxia can be caused by various factors, including high altitude, heart or lung disease, or suffocation.

  4. carbon monoxide poisoning: A condition caused by inhaling carbon monoxide (CO), a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas that is produced when carbon-based fuels, such as coal, wood, charcoal, natural gas, or gasoline, are burned in the presence of insufficient oxygen. CO binds to the hemoglobin in red blood cells, preventing it from carrying oxygen to the body's tissues. As a result, the body's organs and tissues begin to suffer from hypoxia, leading to symptoms such as headache, dizziness, weakness, confusion, shortness of breath, chest pain, nausea, vomiting, and loss of consciousness, and, in severe cases, death.
