Oxygen is supplied to the atmosphere by green plant life.

Ozone is an allotrope of oxygen naturally found in the upper atmosphere.

All animals, humans included, breath in(inhale) oxygen and breath out (exhale) carbon dioxide.

Carbon dioxide is a heavy gas, and falls to the ground. Where upon it is absorbed by green plant life ( grass /trees/bushes/ stems of flowers etc.,) Once absorbed by the plant and under the process of photosynthesis, the carbon dioxide is decomposed into oxygen and the carbon component remains in the plant as biomass. The oxygen is released back into the atmosphere for animals to breath.

The process of photosynthesis only goes on during daylight hours, when there is UV light present. It does NOT occur aty night. It must be a very fast bio-chemical reaction because there is more oxygen in the atmosphere (~20%) than carbon dioxide ( much less than 1%) . This process is known as the 'Oxygen Cycle'.

NB THere are also 'water cycle' , 'Nitrgen Cycle' and 'Carbon Cycle'.

Ozone is formed from oxygen in the upper atmosphere, and is thought to protect us from extreme (UV) radiations from the Sun.

Atmospheric oxygen has the formula (O=O) (O2). However, ozone has the formula (O3) Its structure is triangular, with each oxygen atom forming two single bonds to each of the other two oxygen atoms. Ozone, compared to oxygen, is poisonous to humans.

Oxygen is supplied to the atmosphere by what?

Oxygen is primarily supplied to the atmosphere through photosynthesis by plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. These organisms convert carbon dioxide into oxygen during the process of photosynthesis. Additionally, a small amount of oxygen is also released through chemical reactions, such as the breakdown of ozone in the stratosphere.


Is the ozone in the atmosphere a form of carbon?

No its not. Ozone is a form of oxygen.


Is it useful or harmful when ozone in the upper atmosphere absorbs ultraviolet rays and changes into normal oxygen?

The oxygen formed in upper atmosphere is not for breathing. It forms again into ozone by natural phenomenons.


How is oxygen in the atmosphere supplied?

gurl they aint no oxygen in they atmposphere


Detail about parts of ozone?

Ozone is an isotope of oxygen. It is present as the ozone layer in the atmosphere.


What is the difference between the oxygen you breathe and the ozone located in the earths stratosphere?

Oxygen in the atmosphere is O2, two atoms of oxygen. Ozone, no matter where it is in the atmosphere or in a process, is O3, three atoms of oxygen.


What system includes oxygen nitrogen and ozone?

The Earth's atmosphere includes oxygen, nitrogen, and ozone. Nitrogen makes up about 78% of the atmosphere, oxygen makes up about 21%, and ozone is present in the stratosphere as a protective layer against ultraviolet radiation.


Why is ozone top of the atmosphere?

Ozone is formed at the top because UV radaitions have converted oxygen into ozone over there. Ozone formation is a chemical process. When oxygen is treated with UV radiations oxygen gets converted into ozone.


How is oxygen in the ozone layer different from other layers in atmosphere?

Ozone is triatomic oxygen. (It has three oxygen atoms). 'Normal' oxygen is diatomic. (It has two oxygen atoms)


Does mars have an ozone layer in its atmosphere?

No mars doesn't have an ozone layer. It is because it doesn't have oxygen which can form ozone.


Where did the oxygen and ozone in your atmosphere come from according to this theory?

Oxygen when came in contact with UV broke down. It then reacted with more oxygen to form ozone.


What is on ganymedes surface?

Ice, with a thin oxygen-ozone atmosphere.
