Best Answer

Nitrogen 48% - found directly in air and sea, however must be bound or fixed into chemical reactions to be usuable by most of the organisms.

Oxygen 36% - source of oxygen is through photosynthesis of the plant life in the ocean, and the diffusion of oxygen in the atmosphere

Carbon dioxide 15% - goes very quickly from atmosphere to water, however takes longer to change back from water to air.
