The correct option is D Fall in $O_{2}$ level
Asphyxia is a condition of severely deficient supply of oxygen to the body that arises from abnormal breathing. Asphyxia causes generalized hypoxia, which affects primarily the tissues and organs. There are many circumstances that can induce asphyxia, all of which are characterized by an inability of an individual to acquire sufficient oxygen through breathing for an extended period of time.
