The air that you mostly breathe is oxygen carbon dioxide ozone or nitrogen?

The air that we breathe in 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and 1% carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other gases. We only need the oxygen though, so we breathe out the other gases with the carbon dioxide that our body produces during respiration.
So to answer your question, it is nitrogen, but we breathe it in and then out- we don't use it. The only gas we use is oxygen to breathe.

95% carbon dioxide, 3% nitrogen, 1.6% argon, and contains traces of oxygen and water.
What is the atmosphere on mars composed mostly by?
The atmosphere on Mars is composed mostly of carbon dioxide (about 95.32%), with traces of nitrogen (2.6%) and argon (1.9%). There are also small amounts of oxygen, carbon monoxide, methane, and water vapor.
What is the atmesphere on Pluto?

Do you breathe mostly carbon dioxide?
No, air is mostly nitrogen and oxygen with very very little carbon dioxide (less than 1%)What you exhale is mostly nitrogen, oxygen, and some carbon dioxide.
Why cant you breathe on Venus?
It's mostly carbon dioxide and a little nitrogen. We need oxygen and a lot of nitrogen.

What do humans breathe in?
The air we breathe is mostly made up of nitrogen and oxygen. The remaining 1% is made up of argon, carbon dioxide and other trace gases. Even water vapor (water in its gaseous state) is present in air in varying amounts.
What do you breathe in and out?
You breathe in air, which is comprised mostly of nitrogen (though the oxygen is what you're after).The oxygen is absorbed into the blood, and stored in red blood cells, which contain hemoglobin.The oxygen in your lungs is thus replaced mainly by carbon dioxide, which is a metabolic waste product, and this is what you breathe out.
Do you breathe in more oxygen or nitrogen?
you breathe in more nitrogen then oxygen because there is 78% n in the air and 21% o in the air
