hey mate!
Atherosclerosis is a condition where the arteries become narrowed and hardened due to a buildup of plaque around the artery wall. It is also known as arteriosclerotic vascular disease. The disease disrupts the flow of blood around the body, posing the risk of serious complications.

Answer:
It can cause some body parts to lose their function because enough blood is not flowing to those places. In more severe cases, it can cause a stroke or heart attack.
Explanation:
Arteriosclerosis is the hardening of arteries, sometimes because of plaque or fatty buildups and blockages. This restricts blood flow and could trigger a heart attack or stroke. Some organs may not receive an adequate blood supply and this may lead to organ failure.
