Hypoxia - ANSWERLow oxygen saturation of the body, not enough oxygen in the blood. Will disrupt normal function Hypercapnia - ANSWERexcessive carbon dioxide in the bloodstream, typically caused by inadequate respiration. Respiration - ANSWERthe diffusion of O2 & CO2 between the aveoli & the blood (pulmonary respiration) & between the blood & the cells (cellular respiration) Also used to mean simply breathing alveolar ventilation - ANSWERthe amount of air that reaches the alveoli arti...
