Answer:carbon monoxide poisoning can lead to death if not treated in time...
Explanation:
Carbon monoxide reacts with haemoglobin to form carboxyhaemoglobin which prevents haemoglobin from binding with oxygen( forms oxyhaemoglobin) which will lead to lack of oxygen in tissues....
It can be treated with a carbogen mixture(95% oxygen and 5%carbondioxide)
