Question
coronary artery disease is caused by the
carbon dioxide
plaque

Brief Explanations
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is caused by the buildup of plaque (made of fat, cholesterol, etc.) in the coronary arteries, which narrows them and restricts blood flow. Carbon dioxide is a gas related to respiration, pressure is a general term, and hypertension is a risk factor (not the direct cause of CAD's arterial narrowing mechanism like plaque is).
