Explain why covering something with a blanket can put out a fire

Its called smothering the fire

Explanation:

A fire needs three things to burn always: fuel, oxygen, and a heat source. Eventually the heat source will not be an issue, but the oxygen and fuel is. If the fire is small enough throwing a blanket can quite smother it. What happens is it cuts off the oxygen supply the fire needs long enough for it to die out.

fire could start, buildings collapsing, and ash falling from the sky.

explanation:

this is because the buildings or plants could catch on fire and the buildings would most likely collapse. lastly ash would fall because all the burning would cause ash to fall from the sky.

hope this .
