Answer:

Asphyxia can be caused by injury to or obstruction of breathing passageways, as in strangulation or the aspiration of food (choking) or large quantities of fluid (near-drowning or drowning).

Asphyxia happens when your body doesn't get enough oxygen to keep you from passing out. It can be a life-threatening situation. When you breathe normally, first you take in oxygen. Your lungs send that oxygen into your blood, which carries it to your tissues.

Answer:

Asphyxia 

is the condition where the body either doesn't get enough oxygen to continue normal function or has too much carbon dioxide to function properly. Without adequate oxygen, nerve cells in the brain begin to die in about 2-4 minutes, and cell death is irreversible. When Stephen inhaled water, the water in his lungs blocked the lungs' uptake of oxygen. Drowning or near drowning can cause asphyxia, but so can a number of other conditions.

Causes of Asphyxia

Asphyxia can occur when the airway is physically blocked or as a side effect of an injury or other medical condition.

Examples of the airway being physically blocked can include:

Choking

A foreign object lodged in the respiratory system or throat

  • Suffocation

  • Strangulation

  • Drowning

The tongue blocking the airway when a person is unconscious
