False. Cyanobacteria changed earth's atmosphere by removing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen.
Oxygen in Earth's atmosphere is primarily produced through photosynthesis by plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. During photosynthesis, these organisms use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. Approximately half of the oxygen in Earth's atmosphere is produced by phytoplankton in the ocean.
Oxygen became part of Earth's atmosphere mainly as a result of the evolution of life forms, particularly through photosynthesis by early cyanobacteria and plants. This process involved converting carbon dioxide into oxygen as a byproduct, leading to the oxygen-rich atmosphere we have today.
Earth's early atmosphere was first changed through volcanic activity, which released gases such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen. This led to the formation of oceans and the gradual accumulation of oxygen through photosynthesis by early organisms like cyanobacteria. This oxygenation process transformed the atmosphere to one more similar to the one we have today.
Oxygen in Earth's atmosphere was produced through the process of photosynthesis by cyanobacteria and early algae, starting around 2.5 billion years ago. These organisms converted carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen using sunlight as an energy source. This oxygen began accumulating in the atmosphere and eventually led to the development of the oxygen-rich atmosphere we have today.
photosynthetic organisms, like cyanobacteria, which produced oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis. This led to the increase in atmospheric oxygen levels, changing the composition of Earth's early atmosphere.
Earth's early atmosphere was primarily composed of carbon dioxide. Early bacteria used carbon dioxide as a source of fuel and as a result produced oxygen.
The primary sources of oxygen in Earth's early atmosphere were likely photosynthetic organisms like cyanobacteria, which began producing oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis. Over time, this oxygen built up in the atmosphere, leading to the development of oxygen-rich conditions on Earth.

In the atmosphere, in the form of carbon dioxide
This gas was carbon dioxide.

Oxygen (O2) was not present in early Earth's reducing atmosphere. It only became abundant in the atmosphere due to the photosynthetic activity of cyanobacteria and other early organisms.

Earths atmosphere is 78% nitrogen,21%oxygen,0.9% argon,and 0.03% carbon dioxide with very small percentages of other elements
