no
No, animals breath in oxygen and breath out carbon dioxide. Plants breath in carbon dioxide and breath out or release oxygen, this also includes algae which is a type of plant.
Yes, algae play a significant role in producing oxygen through photosynthesis, which is essential for supporting life on Earth. They contribute a significant amount of the oxygen in the Earth's atmosphere.
Algae can release oxygen and take up carbon dioxide that permeates cells.
No, they produce Co2 which is used for plants to breathe then the plants produce oxygen. This is wrong. Green algae produce 70 to 80% of the oxygen on earth. We would not exist without them.
It feeds certain fish and helps contribute to the oxygen in the water in which it grows.
Photosynthesis
b.)lichens
When algae decompose, they release organic matter into the water. Bacteria break down this organic matter, using up oxygen in the process. This increase in bacterial activity leads to a higher demand for oxygen in the water, which can decrease oxygen levels and harm aquatic life.
Because of algae growth, fish waste, the amount of oxygen decreasing because the fish are breathing it.
While trees play a significant role in producing oxygen, they are not the sole source. Phytoplankton, algae, and other plants also contribute to oxygen production in the atmosphere through photosynthesis. Overall, terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems collectively contribute to the oxygen balance in the atmosphere.
When Algae runs out of the proper nutrition it needs such as phosphates and other minerals it dies. Algae then dies and starts to decay during the decaying process Algae uses oxygen which is also why fish die from lack of oxygen. So to answer this question yes Algae does decay and consume oxygen.
Algae, like all other plants, provides oxygen. All living things, including fish, need oxygen to survive. In the process of photosynthesis, the plant takes in carbon dioxide and gives off oxygen. Algae and all other plants are vital to the well being of the water ecosystem.
