Explanation:

• Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a waste product produced when oxygen and carbon reacts.
• CO2 is removed from the bloodstream through a process called gaseous exchange.
• Gaseous exchange is where oxygen is taken up by the lungs and CO2 is removed from the bloodstream
• It is important that CO2 is removed from the bloodstream, as a buid up of it can cause hypocapnia.
• This occurs when hypoventilation occurs, where too little oxygen is taken up and too little CO2 is eliminated from the bloodstream.
• Hypocapnia can result in respiratory failure, symptoms of this include irregular heatbeat, fatigue, anxiety, etc.
