When a person faints, he/she stills breathing?


Question:
I ALWAYS wanted to know that

Answers:
yes of course. the reason you faint has something to do with the brain..nothing to do with breathing

Other Answers:
Yes, not much different from when you're sleeping.

if a person were to stop beathing they would call it dying, not fainting. You faint because of too little oxygen to the brain, your on the floor, more blood to brain. Breathing is kinda essential to this process also.

When a person faints it is usually as a result of blood draining from the persons head too quickly causing a drop in blood pressure (most likely from some sort of shock). The person still breathes and usually regains consciousness once they have been put to lay flat on their back and their blood pressure returns to normal. (hope this helps!)

Yes they do breath

Breathing is an autonomic or reflex action meaning we have no conscious control over it. So when we faint or sleep the body is in control not us!

Yes. they are still breathing.
BTW:I just want to know why you thought the answer I gave to another question of yours was considered intolerant. I didn't mean to be. I do not hate anyone due to their sexual orientation, in fact I have a lesbian sister and my wife has a gay cousin.
