Carbon dioxide is made and is carried back to the right side of your heart and is pumped to the lungs to be exhaled

The red blood cells help in homeostasis by carrying oxygen to the cells The white blood cells help maintan homeostasis by protecting is from disease. And the platelets help begin the clotting process through out the cells
