    Hypoxia refers to decreased oxygen levels in body tissues while hypercapnia is increased carbon dioxide levels in body tissues. When these conditions occur together it can lead to respiratory acidosis, where the body's pH level decreases due to a buildup of carbon dioxide in the blood as a result of problems with breathing or lung function.
