All of it
Oxygen
No, ocean water does not have higher levels of oxygen than air. The concentration of oxygen in ocean water is much lower compared to the amount found in the atmosphere. Ocean water contains dissolved oxygen essential for marine life, but the overall oxygen content is lower than that of the air.
The ocean typically contains about 21% oxygen dissolved in the water. This dissolved oxygen is essential for marine life to survive and thrive. Oceanic oxygen levels can vary based on factors such as temperature, salinity, and the presence of organisms that consume oxygen.
The ocean contains approximately 50 times more oxygen than the atmosphere. It is estimated that the ocean holds about 94% of the Earth's oxygen supply, with phytoplankton contributing significantly to its production through photosynthesis. This oxygen is vital for marine life and helps regulate the planet's overall oxygen levels.
The ocean produces about 50-85% of the Earth's oxygen, primarily through photosynthesis by phytoplankton and algae. This oxygen comes from plants and algae using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to produce oxygen during the process of photosynthesis.
plant-like plankton in the ocean put out most of the oxygen in the atmoshere as a waste-product of photosynthesis.

Fire requires oxygen. There is no free oxygen in the ocean. Therefore there can be no fire at the bottom of the ocean.
There is no free oxygen on the ocean floor. Oxygen is usually present in the water column, but it becomes depleted in deeper parts of the ocean where organic matter decays and consumes the available oxygen.
Hydrogen and oxygen
Yes, oxygen in the ocean primarily comes from photosynthesis by marine plants and phytoplankton, fueled by sunlight. Around half of Earth's oxygen is produced by oceanic photosynthesizers. Atmospheric oxygen also dissolves into the water at the ocean's surface.
The ocean produces about 50-85% of the Earth's oxygen through phytoplankton and seaweed. While the Amazon rainforest is often praised for its oxygen production, it actually contributes a smaller amount compared to the ocean.
