It's an automatic response to an allergen or other small item that gets into your sinuses and irritates them. It's your body's way of forcing the object out by applying extreme air pressure.

Sneezing can be caused by many different substances. In general, you sneeze when particles enter your body through your nose, and your body sneezes to expell them. These substances may be harmful, or you may be allergic to them (which means they are not harmful but your body thinks they are). The sneeze pushes them out of your body. If they do not get pushed out by the first sneeze, you may sneeze multiple times.

A: Sneezing is a way that your body gets rid of bad things that are in your nose. These things might be bacteria, germs, and other things. You also sneeze when you smell pepper because your body does not like pepper!

An irritant in your nose causes you to sneeze.

It's a protective mechanism. The hairs in your nose filter the air you inhale, and receptors trigger a sneeze when there is an allergen or other foreign object that shouldn't be there.
