Cyanide
Cyanide is a potent poison that stops aerobic respiration by interfering with the electron transport chain in mitochondria. This disruption prevents cells from using oxygen to produce energy, ultimately leading to cell death.
Cyanide acts at the level of the cell mitochondria (the cell's energy factory) to stop the utilization of oxygen in the formation of energy (adenotriphosphates - ATP). Without this energy (ATP), cells cannot function and ultimately die. Cyanide has the same effect in humans... you can die of cyanide poisoning.
