At room temperature oxygen, $O_2$ is present in the gas phase.

A gas is defined as a substance which is characterized by the rapidly movement of molecules which are widely separated. The shape and volume of gas is not definite that is they take on the shape of the container in which it is placed. The gas molecules have minimum inter-nuclear attractions and thus have high kinetic energy.

Thus, the sentences that describes oxygen at room temperature are:

It has no definite volume and takes the shape of its container.
Its particles move fast enough to overcome the attraction between them.
It has more energy than it would be at a cooler temperature as the kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature that is kinetic energy increases on increasing the temperature.

What is the significance of enzymes in maintaining homeostasis in living organisms ?

GalinKa [24]

Enzymes are needed for metabolic pathways in the body, respiration, digestion and other important life processes. When enzymes function properly, homeostasis is maintained. However, if an enzyme is lacking or has an incorrect shape due to genetic mutation, this can lead to disease within an organism.
