A clot can differ in size and where it is clogging the blood vessel. When a clot happens, blood flow slows down, if the clot is not caught or does not exert the body then death can come about. One should be careful if smoking, or eating fatty or greasy foods as these are usualy high in cholestoral. Blood pumps through your heart and into your lungs and your body. If there is a clot anywhere in your body or lungs and there is either a stopage of blood flow due to the heart being overlfowed with blood or the fact that there isn't any coming back into the hear. Blood has to flow through your body at all times and if there is a clot that is stopping it from flowing then that is where death is caused.
