Flood it with another gas, such as CO2 or nitrogen.
No, a fire consumes oxygen as it burns, but it doesn't take all the oxygen out of the air. There is still oxygen left for breathing and for sustaining life, even in the vicinity of a fire.
No, wind does not take away oxygen. Wind is the movement of air in the atmosphere and does not affect the overall concentration of oxygen in the air. Oxygen is one of the primary components of air and is not removed by wind.
Fire requires three things: heat, fuel, and oxygen. If you take one of them away, then the fire will stop. By wrapping a heavy blanket around a burning object, it blocks oxygen in the air from getting to the fire and the fire goes out.
When you smother a fire with a fire blanket, you remove oxygen, one of the elements needed for fire to burn. By restricting the supply of oxygen, the fire is deprived of the required component to sustain combustion, leading to its suppression.
ARTERIES ALWAYS take blood AWAY from the heart.
you put a cup over it lol
A fire blanket removes the oxygen supply from the fire when it is placed over it, suffocating the flames and extinguishing the fire.
Fire needs oxygen to burn. If you take away the oxygen there is nothing feeding the fire so it cannot carry on burning. Water has too little oxygen in it to feed the fire, and so it snuffs the flame, putting it out.
Carbon dioxide is used because it takes away the heat from the fire. Carbon dioxide is very cold and also displaces the oxygen. Heat, oxygen and fuel are part of a "fire triangle" take any of those elements away and the fire will be extinguished.
The three points in the fire triangle are fuel, heat and oxygen. To stop a fire you need to take one of those elements away from the triangle :)

You can normally control a *very small* fire by hitting it with your slipper because it will be starved of oxygen and momentarily cooled. Fire needs 3 things: Fuel, oxygen and heat. By hitting it with your slipper, you will take away some of it's heat, and you will starve it of oxygen.
Actually you need three things. Fuel-something that will burn, oxygen and heat. If you take any of the three things away the fire will die out.
because it takes away the oxygen which fuels a fire.
Fire needs Oxygen gas to burn. The water pushes the Oxygen gas away from the fire, preventing it from burning.
A fire requires oxygen in order to continue to burn. Placing a blanket over the fire robs it of the necessary oxygen, and thus helps to extinguish the flame.
take oxygen and water in cup the mix it and take oxygen in hand and threw it away
