Traveling at around 100mph, a single sneeze is capable of sending 100,000 germs into the air. However, it always depends on how forcefully you do it, whether you make a loud sound or a tiny, choked one. Also called as sternutation, sneeze means a convulsive expulsion of air from lungs through the nose and mouth, which is caused when foreign particles irritate the nasal mucosa. Sneezing is a reflexive response which involves the face, throat and chest muscles.
