Explanation:

It is dangerous to inhale air containing carbon monoxide as it binds very strongly with haemoglobin in the blood and prevents it from carrying oxygen to the brain and other parts of the body. Due to lack of oxygen the person cannot breathe properly and may become unconscious or may even die

Answer:

Carbon monoxide (CO) is dangerous to our body when we inhale air which contains carbon monoxide, it displaces oxygen in the blood and deprives the heart, brain and other vital organs of oxygen. Carbon monoxide combined with haemoglobin and forms carboxyhemoglobin by replacing the oxygen. This reduces the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood. A person may die due to oxygen starvation, also it is dangerous to inhale carbon monoxide.
