What is a frequently forgotten source of atmospheric oxygen?

Sources of Atmospheric OxygenVOLCANOES are an often over looked source of atmospheric oxygen. During an eruption, oxygen is often released during chemical reactions caused by the heat of Magma/Lava.Also, algae in the oceans produce the most oxygen in the world, but are usually overlooked in favor of the more glamorous "rain forests". Though the rain forests produce more oxygen per capita, the sheer size and surface area of the world's oceans ensure that there is more primary production.


What is one source of oxygen and one source of nitrogen in air?

Photosynthesis helps to account for 98% of the worlds atmospheric Oxygen. Some sources of atmospheric Nitrogen include: coastal fogs, volcanoes, air pollution, and uric acid which comes from animal waste.

How is atmospheric oxygen connected to the carbon cycle?

Atmospheric oxygen is connected to the carbon cycle through the process of photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants and other photosynthetic organisms take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and water from the environment, using sunlight as an energy source to convert these substances into glucose and oxygen. The oxygen produced during photosynthesis is released into the atmosphere, contributing to the oxygen content in the air. This process helps regulate the balance of carbon dioxide and oxygen in the atmosphere, playing a crucial role in the carbon cycle.

How much can an oxygen tank carry oxygen?

Depends on the size of the tank, and the temperature and pressure of the gas. One common atmospheric temperature tank has an internal volume of 1.2 cubic feet, and they are commonly delivered at pressures of 2600 psi (or so). This gas source has a bit of water in it too. Another common delivery method is as a liquid in a dewar, and these are delivered by the unit weight, and they use atmospheric heat to boil the liquid oxygen. This gas source is usually very dry.


What is the source of oxygen that is released by a photosynthesis during the light reactions?

The source of Oxygen is the Carbondioxide in the air.


What is the source of much of the oxgen in the atmosphere?

The main source of atmospheric oxygen, on Earth, is cyanobacteria (aka "blue-green algae") in the ocean. According to NASA, it is responsible for 90% of the conversion of CO2 (carbon dioxide) into O2 (oxygen) that we breath.Most of the other 10% is converted by other forms of algae, and saltwater/freshwater plants in general. Land plants actually do not produce enough O2 to even make up for the amount consumed by the bacteria and chemicals among their own roots.Cyanobacteria, regular algae, and plants all do their conversion of carbon dioxide into oxygen using a process called "photosynthesis", in other words the creation (synthesis) of energy (sugars) from light (photo). Higher order plants do this by actually hosting a sort of cousin of cyanobacteria (called chloroplasts) in their own cells.Photosynthesis is the main source of atmospheric oxygen; but some may come from water vapour being split into oxygen & hydrogen by ultraviolet radiation.
