Answer:

Carbon monoxide is harmful when breathed because it displaces oxygen in the blood and deprives the heart, brain and other vital organs of oxygen. Large amounts of CO can overcome you in minutes without warning — causing you to lose consciousness and suffocate. ... Also, CO poisoning poses a special risk to fetuses.

Answer:

Carbon monoxide is produced from the partial oxidation of carbon-containing compounds; it forms when there is not enough oxygen to produce carbon dioxide (CO2), such as when operating a stove or an internal combustion engine in an enclosed space.

Explanation:

At low levels of exposure carbon monoxide may cause headaches, fatigue, shortness of breath, or impaired motor functions (which could result in difficulty walking). At high levels or long exposure time, carbon monoxide can cause dizziness, chest pain, blurred vision, and difficulty thinking.
