Oxygen molecules are stable because they have a full set of electrons in their outer shell, making them less likely to react with other elements. This stability prevents oxygen from breaking apart easily under normal conditions.
It is possible to break bonds between oxygen by supplying heat and this process takes place in all burning / oxidation reactions.
Oxygen molecules have a strong double bond between the two oxygen atoms, which requires a significant amount of energy to break. This double bond holds the two oxygen atoms together tightly, making oxygen relatively stable and less likely to break easily compared to other nonmetals.
Oxygen is a gas, and gases do not break. Solids can break, especially if they are brittle. Note that oxygen is not the only nonmetal that is a gas. Nitrogen is another significant example. All the noble gases are also nonmetals.
Aerobic respiration is the type of respiration that uses oxygen to break down food molecules to produce energy in the form of ATP.
Higher energy ultraviolet light is required to break the oxygen-oxygen bond in oxygen gas (O2) compared to other molecules because the O-O bond in O2 is particularly strong due to its double bond nature. This bond requires more energy to break because it involves breaking both the sigma and pi bonds holding the two oxygen atoms together.
Uh...sorry to break it to you, but oxygen is air.
Decomposers are organisms that break down dead or decaying material. They affect oxygen levels by depleting them since they need oxygen to break down material.
because its a gas

anaerobic respiration is the breakdown of food without oxygen.

The oxyhaemoglobin will break down and oxygen will release. :)
respiration
they break sugar down using enzymes which are proteins, into energy, oxygen is used as an energy supplier to the reaction which creates water and Co2
