Is oxygen is harmful for human?

Oxygen is necessary for human survival as we need it to breathe and for our cells to function. However, exposure to extremely high levels of oxygen can be harmful and cause oxygen toxicity. This is rare and usually only occurs in situations like medical treatment with high levels of supplemental oxygen.


Why does mountain climber need oxygen mask?

Mountain climbers need oxygen masks at high altitudes because the air becomes thinner and contains less oxygen, leading to hypoxia which can result in dizziness, shortness of breath, confusion, and even death. Oxygen masks help climbers supplement the oxygen they need to maintain proper breathing and prevent altitude sickness.


Is oxygen manmade?

No. Earth's oxygen is provided by plants. Humans need oxygen to live, so we could not have been there before there was oxygen, so we could not have made the oxygen.


What element carries oxygen in the blood?

Hemoglobin, a protein found in red blood cells, carries oxygen in the blood. It has a high affinity for oxygen, allowing it to bind to oxygen molecules in the lungs and release them to the body tissues that need oxygen for cellular respiration.


How far do you need to go tell you run out of oxygen?

The distance you can go before running out of oxygen depends on factors like your level of physical activity and the volume of oxygen in your tank. On average, a scuba diver with a standard tank can go from 30 minutes to an hour at recreational depths before running out of oxygen. It is essential to monitor your oxygen levels and plan your dive accordingly.

What else do we need to know about mars before we go there?

How to get there and how high you can go before needing oxygen.


What happens when a balloon floats up into the atmosphere?

As the balloon ascends into the atmosphere, the air pressure surrounding it decreases, causing the gas inside the balloon to expand. Eventually, the gas inside the balloon will expand so much that the balloon will burst or pop. Pieces of the balloon will then fall back down to the ground.


How long do oxygen absorbers last before they need to be replaced?

Oxygen absorbers typically last about 1-2 years before they need to be replaced.


Which animals need high oxygen levels?

Usually fish need high oxygen levels. Sure they live in water, however they often hide near rocks and corals, places were they are able to get alternating levels of oxygen. Some creatures live near underwater volcanoes where the temperature and oxygen levels are altered. Other fish need to surface to the water in order to capture a breath of air before they dive down into the water again. Some fish species who are unable to collect water can drown from suffocation when unable to get enough oxygen.


Why do people who climb high need gas masks?

Because of high altitude sickness which is affected by climbing up high were there is high altitude. High altitude is were there is to much oxygen up high, if you breech in to much oxygen you could faint.


How do you make flour balloon people?

You need a balloon, flour and a funnel. All you need to do is put the funnel inside the balloon and pour the flour in. When it is big enough you can tie the balloon up and put googly eyes on it.


What is the minimum amount of PSI you can have in your oxygen tank before you need to exchange tanks?

Typically, the minimum amount of PSI recommended in an oxygen tank before needing to be exchanged is around 500 PSI. This ensures that there is enough oxygen for safe use and prevents running out unexpectedly.


Can you use birthday balloons for balloon animlas?

No you need a special type of balloon.


Is there an experiment to inflate a balloon with a banana what supplies are needed?

A banana will slowly inflate a sealed balloon or plastic bag because it gives off gases (notably ethylene) as it ripens. However, if a banana is too ripe, it may oxidize and remove oxygen from the air.


Could you use helium to float an item into space?

No, air pressure increases as the balloon goes up, so the balloon will pop and fall to the ground. You can get high up in the atmosphere (but you need a LOT of helium and a balloon that can get VERY big) you will not reach "outer" space beyond the Earth's atmosphere.


Can you show a labeled picture of high and low pressure in a party balloon?

No. WikiAnswers doesn't store graphics. But that's OK, because you don't need a picture. The pressure is the same at every point inside any single balloon. There are no places inside a balloon where the pressure is higher or lower than at any other place in the same balloon.


What would you need to produce oxygen?

Electricity, water and some beakers would do it. In bio we used hydrogen peroxide and ground up liver to show enzymatic reactions. We put them in a test tube and produced oxygen, I'm sure it would work on a larger scale. Try combining the two in plastic 1 gallon milk container and put a balloon on top, the balloon will inflate with oxygen, then just tie it off.
