Which of the following choices describes an oxygen deficient atmosphere?
An oxygen deficient atmosphere is one that lacks a sufficient amount of oxygen to support human or animal life. It can occur in environments where oxygen is depleted, such as in confined spaces or areas with high levels of carbon dioxide, gases, or chemicals that displace oxygen. Breathing in an oxygen deficient atmosphere can lead to suffocation or loss of consciousness.
Which mechanisms are involved in the origin of petroleum and coal?
Rapid accumulation, chemical alteration, and oxygen deficient environment.
When did oxygen get its name?
Oxygen's name is of Greek origin. The Greek words were "Oxy genes" which means acid and acid former. Oxygen was discovered before 1772. It was not recognized as an element at that time.
What is oxygen rich?
"Oxygen rich" means lots of oxygen. If the air in a room is "oxygen rich" things will burn better. "Oxygen poor" means there isn't much and "oxygen starved" means there is none or almost none.
What are Ions that are deficient in electrons?

What is deficient amount of oxygen in inspired air?
hypoxia
What is a word that means to miss or to be deficient in something?
to miss or be deficient = lack
What does a high CO2 level indicate?
It means that the levels of carbon dioxide in the blood are increased usually causing a deficient level of oxygen. This condition can cause cells to die.
What is the most common cause of fatalities in an oxygen deficient confined space?
asphyxiation
Medical term for oxygen deficient blood gases?
Haemoglobinopathy (..pathia in Lat.)
What is a four letter word that means to miss or be deficient in something?
to miss or be deficient = lack
Will an air purifying respirators save your life within an oxygen-deficient atmosphere?
No, an air purifying respirator will NOT save your life in an oxygen deficient atmosphere.An air PURIFYING respirator removes bad things from air. It does not MAKE good things (like oxygen). In an oxygen deficient atmosphere, you must have a supply of oxygen. This is usually provided by an SCBA, or an air line respirator.Underground miners have "self rescue breathers." These are a form of respirator that can make oxygen. They are very expensive, have limited uses, and work for a limited time.
What is considered to be an oxygen-deficient atmosphere?
The absence of free atmospheric oxygen means that the atmosphere does not contain any elemental oxygen (O2). Any oxygen is locked away in compounds such as carbon dioxide.
Describes the condition of having deficient levels of oxygen in the body's tissues and organs?
hypoxia
How carbon monoxide is made?
By burning a carbon based fuel in an oxygen deficient atmosphere.
