The answer to the first question is: hypercapnia.

Explanation for each option:

  • Hypercapnia: This is the correct answer. Hypercapnia refers to an excessive amount of carbon dioxide in the bloodstream, typically caused by inadequate respiration.
  • Hyperoxemia: This term refers to an excess of oxygen in the blood, not carbon dioxide.
  • Cyanosis: This is a condition characterized by a bluish discoloration of the skin due to poor circulation or inadequate oxygenation of the blood, not directly related to carbon dioxide levels.
  • Hyperoxia: This refers to an excess of oxygen in the tissues or organs, not carbon dioxide.

The answer to the second question is: venous distension.

Explanation for each option:

  • Edema: This refers to swelling caused by excess fluid trapped in the body's tissues, not specifically related to veins.
  • Thrill: This is a vibration felt on palpation, usually over an area of turbulent blood flow, such as a heart murmur, not related to swollen veins.
  • Pallor: This refers to an unusual lightness of skin color compared to your normal complexion, often due to reduced blood flow or decreased red blood cells, not related to veins.
  • Venous distension: This is the correct answer. Venous distension refers to the condition where veins become enlarged or swollen, often visible under the skin.

In summary, the condition of excessive carbon dioxide in the blood is hypercapnia, and the condition of enlarged or swollen veins is called venous distension.
