Answer: D) CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM, INTERSTITIAL FLUID, LYMPH, CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all define Homeostasis. Is the process that cells of an organism do to maintain and regulate the stability of certain variables needed to function properly. These variables such as blood pressure, temperature, ph, osmolarity, leukocytes, etc are maintained by the constant adjustment of biochemical or physiological pathways. The body fluids such as blood serve as a medium for carrying nutrients, hormones, neurotransmitters, etc. On the other hand body fluids like lymph carries waste products and immune system components: lymphocytes.

The recirculation of the blood begins in the systole when the heart pumps blood to the whole body. Then when the blood gets to the microvascular capillaries exits to become interstitial fluid. This interstitial fluid come into contact with the parenchymal cells. Then it forms Lymph. Lymph is the fluid that is formed when intertitial fluid enter the lumphatic vessels.

Finally the lymph returns to the cardiovascular system through the thoracic duct that collects all the lymph on the left side of the body and through the right lymphatic duct that collects the lymph from the upper body.
