How does inhalation affect the body?

Inhalation involves breathing in toxic substances, which then enter the respiratory system and may reach the bloodstream quickly. This route is particularly concerning for gases, vapors, and fine particles, as they can cause immediate respiratory effects and systemic toxicity. For instance, inhaling carbon monoxide can lead to impaired oxygen transport and even death.
