What are two processes that uses oxygen?

The two processes that use oxygen are cellular respiration, which occurs in organisms to produce energy, and combustion, which is a chemical reaction that involves fuel and oxygen to produce heat and light.


2 uses of oxygen?

Oxygen is essential for the process of cellular respiration in organisms, where it is used to break down glucose and produce energy in the form of ATP. Oxygen is used in combustion reactions, where it helps fuel burning in various processes such as the burning of fuels for energy production or in industrial processes.


What two main biological processes are responsible for the cycling of oxygen?

Photosynthesis by plants and other organisms is responsible for producing oxygen, while respiration by animals and other organisms uses oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. These two processes work together in the oxygen cycle to maintain a balance of oxygen in the atmosphere.

Are metabolic processes that require oxygen called anaerobic?

Metabolic processes that require oxygen are termed aerobic. Metabolic processes that do not require oxygen are termed anaerobic.


What are some important uses for oxygen?

Oxygen is essential for many things: 1. All aerobic metabolic processes on animals such as sea and land animals including people use oxygen . Oxygen is what we breath in, CO2 what we breath out. 2. Almost all combustion processes whether camp fires, engines, or fossil fueled power plants. 3. Many chemical processes in manufacturing utilize oxygen as a reagent such as pharmaceuticals (drugs), plastics, and refineries. 4. Fabrication processes like welding often use oxygen (cutting torches). 5. Results in the ozone layer (O3) which absorbs ultraviolet radiation. While not exactly uses for oxygen, it also causes steel to rust, metals to oxidize and participates in much of the weathering effect on paint and materials as well as promotes the breakdown of many materials and elements.
