The air in a passenger aeroplane is a sealed system. Therefore, any puncture in the skin, or a malfunction in the air supply, could de-pressurise the cabin. In which case, oxygen masks are released for the people inside, to give time for the pilot to descend to a lower height where masks would not be needed.

What is aircraft air system?
Not sure if this is the same but here is what the aircraft systems are called. The different systems are identified and categories into different ATA Chapters.
