Answer
Absorption and Inhalation
Explanation
The four common ways known for substances to enter the body are through ingestion (eating or drinking), injection (shots or intravenous), absorption (through skin or eyes), and inhalation (breathing it into the lungs). The given options are inhalation and asphyxiation, suffocation and crushed, absorption and inhalation, absorption and suffocation. Asphyxiation, suffocation, and crushed are largely unrelated to this context as they refer to processes that limit or obstruct airflow, and therefore oxygen supply to the body rather than methods of substance entry. Thus, the correct answer is absorption and inhalation, which represent two of the four entry points of substances into the body.
