Oxygen is a gas. In addition, gases other than oxygen are involved in the respiration process - such as carbon dioxide or nitrogen.
During every breath, people inhale the surrounding air, which includes nitrogen, oxygen, some carbon dioxide and a trace smattering of other inert gases. In populated areas, there may also be soot, dust, various industrial chemicals that have been vaporized, viruses, bacteria, fungal spores and a wide variety of odiferous chemicals.
Yes, roots do respire. they need oxygen just like all other parts of plants. they get this oxygen from air spaces in the soil. in some plants like rice which grow in wet soil, the roots have air spaces which allow atmospheric oxygen to be transferred to the root cells.
The percentage of oxygen in air is 21%.
Carbon dioxide acts as a greenhouse gas and retains heat radiation from the sun, which, combined with other greenhouse gases helps to maintain the earths surface temperature. Without the presence of CO2 in the atmosphere, most of the solar radiation would not be retained and thus the surface temperature would be very low and unable to sustain human life.
The air contains approximately 78 percent of nitrogen, 21 percent of oxygen, 0.93 percent of argon, and very small amounts of other gases. These other gases include carbon dioxide, neon, helium, and xenon.

Oxygen is an element - it contains no other constituent gases.
The atmosphere is a mixture of gases. (78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, 1% other) Negatively.
Oxygen helps to break down dead materials. Once the oxygen has been broken down, the material will release carbon dioxide and other gases.
Trees are quite important to us humans beings and also to the environment. Trees respire oppositely to the way we do. They take in carbon dioxide (which they can "lock-up" in their wood for long periods of time, which reduces the amount of CO2 in our atmosphere) and they release oxygen which humans and animals use to respire.
nitrogen, oxygen, and other gases
The air we inhale is roughly 78% by volume nitrogen, 20% oxygen, 1% argon and 0.04% carbon dioxide, helium, water vapour, and small amounts of other gases.

Yes
The percentage of gases in the stratosphere is 79% nitrogen, 20% oxygen, and 1% other gases.
There is only oxygen in oxygen. If you mean what gases are present in "air" then it's mostly nitrogen (about 78%), oxygen (about 20%) and argon (.93%) and the other 1.07% is made up of 13 other gases including carbon dioxide and trace amounts of ammonia, to name a few.
