Oxygen
photosynthesis by cyanobacteria
Plants, especially through the process of photosynthesis, release oxygen into the atmosphere. Photosynthesis involves the absorption of carbon dioxide and the release of oxygen as a byproduct. Additionally, certain types of algae and cyanobacteria contribute to oxygen production through photosynthesis in aquatic environments.
Cyanobacteria are believed to be responsible for establishing Earth's oxygen-rich atmosphere. Nearly 2.3 billion years ago, these microbes, which lived in the seas, were the first organisms to produce oxygen, leading to the transformation of the Earth's environment.
The atmosphere is 79.9% oxygen.

Cyanobacteria make molecular oxygen in our atmosphere.
oxygen
Cyanobacteria do not require oxygen. They are believed to have produced the first oxygen supply in the Earth's atmosphere, through the process of photosynthesis.

False. Cyanobacteria changed earth's atmosphere by removing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen.
photosynthesis by cyanobacteria
cyanobacteria releases oxygen as a byproduct into the atmosphere.
Cyanobacteria were the first organisms to produce oxygen in water, which then escaped into the atmosphere.
Cyanobacteria, which are sometimes incorrectly called blue-green algae, were the first organisms to add oxygen to early Earth. Blue-green algae are eukaryotes while cyanobacteria are the much earlier prokaryotes.
