While many reactions involve oxygen, only combustion reactions require oxygen as a reactant.
oxidation
Anaerobic
Aerobic
Oxygen. Without oxygen, you are in the Anerobic cycle.
Cellular respiration or the Krebs cycle.
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen; anaerobic respiration does not use oxygen.
To perform respiration - day or night - , in this case also called the Dark Reaction, requires the presence of atmospheric O2.
Aerobic metabolism requires oxygen to function.

The chemical reaction of oxygen with other substances is called oxidation.
A rapid reaction between oxygen and a fuel is called combustion.
Cellular respiration or the Krebs cycle.
No. It is endothermic as it requires energy.
Burning is combustion, which is an oxidation reaction that requires oxygen. Therefore oxygen promotes burning, as it is a reactant in the reaction, and higher concentrations of a reactant will result in a faster rate of reaction (collision theory).
Burning is an oxidation reaction - a reaction with oxygen.
The formation of iron oxides is caused by chemical reaction of iron and oxygen. Note, it is not rusting; rusting also requires the presence of water.
Oxidisation
The slow destruction of a metal through its reaction with oxygen in the air is called CORROSION
