Oxygen is a vital parameter regulated by homeostasis to maintain physiological stability, as evidenced by its role in core tissue maintenance [1], [2], and [3], and its transport through the cardiovascular and respiratory systems to support homeostatic balance [4], [5].

claimThe cardiovascular and respiratory systems work together to maintain homeostasis by circulating blood to transport oxygen and nutrients to tissues and removing carbon dioxide waste.
claimThe cardiovascular and respiratory systems interact to maintain homeostasis: the cardiovascular system transports carbon dioxide from tissues to the respiratory system, where it is removed and replaced with oxygen, which is then delivered back to the tissues via the bloodstream.

claimHomeostasis operates reactively by responding to perturbations through negative feedback mechanisms to maintain vital constants like blood pH (approximately 7.0), body temperature (around 37°C), and oxygen levels within narrow ranges.
claimHomeostasis regulates core vital parameters such as pH, temperature, and oxygen, while allostasis regulates supporting parameters including blood pressure, heart rate, and hormones.

claimIn McEwen's model, homeostasis maintains the stability of core tissue parameters like pH and temperature, while allostasis dynamically modifies pericellular parameters like blood pressure and oxygen to support that stability.
