Blood is the specialized fluid that circulates within the cardiovascular system to transport oxygen, nutrients, and waste products throughout the body, as described in [1] and [2]. The cardiovascular system functions specifically by pumping and circulating this blood to maintain homeostasis and facilitate gas exchange, 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 functions to transport oxygen, nutrients, and hormones throughout the body via blood, and to eliminate carbon dioxide and other metabolic 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.
claimThe respiratory system performs the exchange of carbon dioxide for oxygen in the alveoli, which receive blood supplied by the cardiovascular system.
claimThe major functions of the cardiovascular system include the transportation of oxygen, nutrients, and hormones throughout the body within the blood, as well as the elimination of carbon dioxide and other metabolic waste.
claimThe exchange of carbon dioxide for oxygen occurs in the alveoli of the respiratory system, which receives blood supplied by the cardiovascular system.

quoteYour circulatory system, or cardiovascular system, supplies oxygen and nutrients to your whole body and removes waste through your blood. Your heart pumps blood that flows through your arteries, veins and capillaries. These blood vessels and your heart form your circulatory system. They work together to ensure your cells have what they need.
