Two oxygen atoms, you sneaky person, you.
Carbon atoms are fixed into organic compounds in The Calvin Cycle.
Oxygen can form both metallic and covalent bonds, depending on the specific elements it interacts with and the conditions under which the bonding occurs. Covalent Bonds: In its most common form, oxygen forms covalent bonds with other nonmetals. For example, in a molecule like oxygen gas (O2), two oxygen atoms share electrons through covalent bonds. This sharing of electrons creates a stable molecule. Metallic Bonds: Oxygen can also form metallic bonds with certain metals. Metallic bonding occurs when electrons are free to move throughout a metal lattice, creating a "sea" of electrons that are shared by all the atoms in the metal. Oxygen can be a part of such a metallic lattice in compounds known as metal oxides. For example, in rust (iron oxide), oxygen forms a metallic bond with iron atoms. So, to sum it up, oxygen primarily forms covalent bonds with nonmetals and metallic bonds with some metals in the context of metal oxides.
Oxygen is an element. It forms chemical bonds with another oxygen atom, forming a nonpolar covalent bond. It forms covalent bonds with other nonmetals, and ionic bonds with metals.
Yes. Chemical bonds include covalent bonds and ionic bonds.
Oxygen atoms form covalent bonds with each other

Carbon atoms form covalent bonds with other carbon atoms, and with other nonmetals, such as carbon and oxygen, or carbon and hydrogen.
Oxygen forms lots of covalent bonds, typically with carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, or chlorine, or with other oxygen atoms in the case of the diatomic oxygen molecule.

Carbon will almost always form bonds with other carbon atoms, and that is part of what makes it such a useful element.
Water has two main bonds: hydrogen bonds between other water molecules, and a covalent bond between hydrogen and oxygen.
Oxygen and carbon are both nonmetals that have a strong preference for creating covalent bonds (bonds where electrons are shared between the atoms). They are also both relatively abundant, so they tend to be present with each other and bond through covalent bonds.
A covalent bond
By sharing electrons in covalent bonds or by transferring electrons in ionic bonds
Oxygen is an element. It forms chemical bonds with another oxygen atom, forming a nonpolar covalent bond. It forms covalent bonds with other nonmetals, and ionic bonds with metals.
