CO reacts with hemoglobin in our blood and produces a compound that prevents oxygen circulation in our blood. Whereas CO2 has no such property. Because carbon monoxide form a bond with hemoglobin in the blood, that is fatal.

Carbon monoxide is very poisonous, whereas carbon dioxide is not at all toxic in nature. The reason why carbon monoxide is poisonous is because it has the capacity of forming a complex with blood as in haemoglobin
