Why exposure to carbon monoxide can be fatal?
Carbon monoxide binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells more readily than oxygen, reducing the blood's ability to carry oxygen to vital organs. This can lead to oxygen deprivation in the body's tissues, causing cell damage and potentially leading to death. Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning can include headache, dizziness, difficulty breathing, and loss of consciousness.
