    A.

    Carbon dioxide

    B.

    Carbon monoxide

    C.

    Methane

    D.

    Nitrogen dioxide

    Correct option is B


    Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, and highly poisonous gas. It's also known as the "silent killer" because it's undetectable by human senses. 
    · Carbon monoxide is produced when fuels like wood, coal, oil, and natural gas are burned incompletely. 
    · It's found in furnaces, fireplaces, cars, and gas appliances like ovens, water heaters, and clothes dryers. 
    · Inhaling carbon monoxide can cause flu-like symptoms and can be fatal. 
    · Carbon monoxide binds with hemoglobin in the blood, preventing oxygen from reaching the body's organs.
