  2.  @mike_w-tw6jd no it can’t be both because carbon monoxide has the one “O” in its molecular denotation and carbon dioxide has the 2 “O”s in i’s molecular denotation. Combining this information with the context and specific subject of what the man is specifically talking about in the video, we find that no it cannot be both in the context of the speech. Carbon monoxide is poisonous. Carbon Dioxide is not poisonous, per se. Only that, your body cannot live on carbon dioxide but your body still makes it, and too much can still kill you but, carbon dioxide suffocates you to kill you. Carbon dioxide does not poison your blood it just suffocates your lungs. Whereas, alternatively, carbon monoxide is poisonous, simultaneously poisoning your blood stream while you also suffocate. Careful folks! stay alive!
