umm oxygen. we would die without it
without nitrogen our bodys would over oxygenate (get to much oxygen). nitrogen is important for plants, after all they breath in nitrogen and breath out oxygen.
oxygen is used by human and animals for respiration but nitrogen do not. for consuming nitrogen plants need nitrogen fixation thus occurs on low scale on other hand oxygen is directly used so its cunsumbtion is more then nitrogen. another important point is that oxygen is used in burning, formation of water etc thus means ratio of cunsumbtion of oxygen is more then nitrogen ,if there was more oxygen then it would lead to a blast every time there was a spark
In the atmosphere, Nitrogen is about four times as common as is Oxygen.

No, oxygen is more reactive than nitrogen. Oxygen readily forms compounds with other elements, while nitrogen is relatively inert under most conditions.
Nitrogen
There is: Nitrogen (N2): 78.09% Oxygen (O2): 20.95% in the atmosphere There is ~3.73 times more oxygen than nitrogen in the air and is in a ratio (oxygen to nitrogen) of 39:10 (rounded).
Nitrogen is more abundant; our atmosphere is 78% Nitrogen.
more nitrogen. percentage of gases in air is as follow 78.09% nitrogen, 20.95% oxygen, 0.93% argon, 0.039% carbon dioxide, and small amounts of other gases
Nitrogen is more abundant in Earth's atmosphere, making up about 78% of the air. Oxygen makes up about 21% of the atmosphere.
The atmosphere contains more nitrogen than oxygen. Approximately 78% of the atmosphere is nitrogen, while oxygen makes up about 21%. The remaining 1% consists of other gases like argon, carbon dioxide, and trace gases.
Oxygen is a diatomic gas with atomic number 8, while nitrogen is also a diatomic gas but has atomic number 7. Oxygen is essential for respiration and combustion, while nitrogen is important for plant growth and as a major component of the Earth's atmosphere.
