Our bodies need oxygen every single minute of every single day of our lifes (whether your awake or asleep). If we stopped breathing while we are asleep 2 things will happen: 1. Carbon dioxide levels in our bodies will increase (it is essential to get rid of this carbon dioxide gas from our body) and 2. Without oxygen, the cells in our body will stop working and as a result our organs and eventually our systems will all shut down. If this happens, death will result.
