Best Answer

Drowning is death from asphyxia (deficient oxygen to the body) due to suffocation caused by a liquid entering the lungs preventing the absorption of oxygen. It leads to cerebral hypoxia (inadequate oxygen to the brain) and myocardial infarcation (lack of oxygen to the heart). If you mean the act of someone being drown it would be from:

Drugs+swiming

Drinking+swiming

Not know how to swim + going in water

One person is mad at another + water= easy death

something is restraining a person from swiming up
