green vegetation are plants and of course plants give out oxygen and take our carbondioxide

Why did the amount of oxygen's in earths atmosphere increase dramatically?
The amount of oxygen in the atmosphere increased because the number of photosynthetic organisms, which release oxygen, on the earth dramatically increased. This lead to the Great Oxygenation Event, or the Oxygen Crisis, 2.4 billion years ago - when this free O2 entered the Earth's atmosphere.
How the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere gradually increased?
Greate Oxygenation Event, This dramatically caused a new ice age because of the increase effecting the atmosphere.
How did oxygen become a part of the earths atmosphere and what did this increase in oxygen levels allow?
The oxygen in the atmosphere is the O-Zone which is O3 (Oxygen 3) because of plant life oxygen had increased via photosynthesis, the incease just allowed the ozone to thicken, but sadly due to CFC there are large holes
How did oxygen become a part of earth's atmosphere and what did this increase in oxygen levels allow?
The majority of oxygen in the atmosphere come from photosynthesis. Aquatic Cyanobacteria (blue green algae) were the first known organisms to use photosynthesis, before there were land plants. The by product of photosynthesis is oxygen. This increase in oxygen eventually allowed organisms to use respiration as a method of energy production. Thus it allowed for land animals.
What caused the proportion of oxygen in the atmosphere to increase?
Plants started to grow on the earth, plants breath in carbon dioxide (which is why it decreased so much) and they breath out oxygen. That is why the percentage of oxygen has increased so much.
Photosynthesis increase what gas in the atmosphere?
Oxygen, produces it.
Has the amount of oxygen released into the atmosphere increased in recent years?
The amount of oxygen released into the atmosphere has not noticeably increased in recent years. The amount of oxygen (O2) in the atmosphere is about 21%. It is part of the earth's oxygen cycle, the main driver of which is photosynthesis. Vegetation removes carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere, releases the oxygen (O2) and stores the carbon (C).
What quantity of oxygen do people breathe in?
The atmosphere we breathe contains 21% oxygen 78% Nitrogen and 1% Other gases such as argon.
Which process increases the amount of oxygen and decreases the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
Photosynthesis by green vegetation and forests.
How do you increase oxygen level in atmosphere?
don't smoke, excercise, espessially walking.
How do you think the removal of vegetation affects oxygen in the atmosphere?
Since Oxygen is a product of Photosynthesis which is what plants do as they take in and use up Carbon di Oxide (CO2) in order to grow. As vegetation was removed there would obviously be a decrease in the amount of Oxygen and an increase of CO2 available in the atmosphere. Therefore we would not be able to breathe. We would be able to breathe but because of the lack of Oxygen we would breathe heavier and more rapidly. The more the Oxygen is depleted the more rapidly we would breath and the harder it would become for us to stay alive until eventually there would be insufficient Oxygen to sustain life and all life as we know it would cease to exist.

What will happen if the oxygen in the atmosphere is 21 percent?
Oxygen is already 20.946% by volume, So an increase of 0.054% should not make any difference
What do producers released into the atmosphere during photosynthesis?
The main products that they release into the atmosphere are water vapor and oxygen gas. There are also other molecules that are released in some plants and other producers but, these vary with the plant and are in much lower quantity.
