Carbon dioxide is a metabolic waste product generated by tissues that must be transported away by the cardiovascular system, as described in [1] and [2]. The circulatory and respiratory systems collaborate to remove this waste from tissues and replace it with oxygen, as evidenced by [3], [4], and [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 system transports carbon dioxide from body tissues to the respiratory system, where it is removed from the blood and replaced with oxygen, which is then delivered back to the tissues via the bloodstream.
claimThe cardiovascular system circulates blood throughout the body to deliver oxygen and nutrients to cells and tissues while removing waste products and carbon dioxide generated by metabolism.
