Why does the boy have high levels of CO2 and lactic acid and low levels of O2

After falling into an abandoned well, a young boy is rescued after he nearly drowns. He is found to have high levels of CO2 and lactic acid and low levels of O2. Diagnose the boys condition and recommend the necessary treatment to restore this body to homeostasis. Why does the boy have high levels of CO2 and lactic acid and low levels of O2?

2 seperate questions but they are tied together. the second question co-insides with the first. These are 2 practice questions for a test. These questions arent being graded. But this whole thing is so confusing. The questions on the test are going to be harder. I can hardly wait. HELP

You have just been in an accident and have experienced substantial blood loss. What autoregulatory mechanisms in the kidney will be initiated to maintain filtration pressure? Describe this mechanism in detail. If blood loss continues, what will occur to the autoregulatory mechanism? Given the following lab values, answer the same questions addressed in question, again, give specific reasons for your answers. pH = 7.48; PCO2 = 46 mm Hg; HCO3- = 33mEq/L
