Can you break oxygen bonds?
It is possible to break bonds between oxygen by supplying heat and this process takes place in all burning / oxidation reactions.
Why doesn't oxygen break like the other non metals?
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.
What process uses oxygen to break down food molecules?
osmosis
What does carbonic anhydrase break carbonic acid into when blood reaches the lungs?
bicarbonate and oxygen
Which requires a shorter wavelength to break- one of the bonds in the molecule Ozone or Oxygen?
Both ozone and oxygen absorb UV-C or more energetic light, and are broken apart by it. Only ozone can absorb the less energetic (longer wavelength) UV-B, to protect the DNA of surface life on Earth.
How did oxygen became air?
Uh...sorry to break it to you, but oxygen is air.
How do decomposers affect oxygen?
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.
Why can not oxygen break easily?
because its a gas

The break down of food without oxygen?
anaerobic respiration is the breakdown of food without oxygen.
What does a cell use to break down food?
oxygen
What does the body break down during respiration?
Oxygen
What happens when the blood reaches tissues or cells that do not have enough oxygen?
The oxyhaemoglobin will break down and oxygen will release. :)
What process uses oxygen and break down glucose?
respiration
Organic compounds break down spontaneously in the presence of?
Oxygen
Do humans break down sugars into energy or oxygen?
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
