• Colourless, odourless, tasteless gas
• Oxidation – process of uniting/of causing a substance to unite with oxygen

• Carl Wilhelm Schele– Swedish chemist
– Discovered O2 1772

Required
• All living things use oxygen OR
• Depend on organisms that use oxygen in some way
![Page 6: The Oxygen Cycle pt2](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062217/55cf8ed0550346703b95e07c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Biological Importance
• Need it to breathe
• Need it for decomposition of organic waste
• Water can dissolve oxygen – supports aquatic life

• Use oxygen to break down simple sugar release energy
• Done through respiration/fermentation
• Animals mainly use respiration
![Page 8: The Oxygen Cycle pt2](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062217/55cf8ed0550346703b95e07c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Respiration
• Breaks apart simple food molecules release energy
• Occurs inside cells

Cycle
![Page 10: The Oxygen Cycle pt2](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062217/55cf8ed0550346703b95e07c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Simple sugar - Glucose
• Molecule most living things use for energy
• Break down food into smaller molecules during digestion. One of which is Glucose.
• Leaves intestines blood stream every cell in body

Respiration in Cells
• Oxygen used to split glucose apart releasing energy, water, carbon dioxide
![Page 12: The Oxygen Cycle pt2](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062217/55cf8ed0550346703b95e07c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Today
• East’s atmosphere – 21%
• Lithosphere 99.5%
• Hydrosphere 46.6%
• Biosphere 0.01%

Photosynthesis
• Plants – take in CO2, H2O make food
• Food: glucose
![Page 15: The Oxygen Cycle pt2](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062217/55cf8ed0550346703b95e07c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Plants pull carbon off CO2 and use oxygen in glucose. (They do not need oxygen for this. Get it from H2O.)
Release oxygen into atmosphere
* Other organisms use the free oxygen for respiration
![Page 16: The Oxygen Cycle pt2](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062217/55cf8ed0550346703b95e07c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration
Chemical Relation
• Photosynthesis – uses CO2 O2
• Cellular respiration – uses O2 CO2
![Page 17: The Oxygen Cycle pt2](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062217/55cf8ed0550346703b95e07c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Aquatic environment
• Happens on land, in water
• Algae, aquatic plants produce food underwater through photosynthesis
• They are present 20% in atmosphere
• Other aquatic organisms use the dissolved oxygen these plants release into the water.

Human Impact
• Destroying natural areas, forested areas eith many plants replacing with buildings, parking lots, lawns etc
• Fewer plants less O2, more CO2
• Disturbs balance of natural cycle
![Page 20: The Oxygen Cycle pt2](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062217/55cf8ed0550346703b95e07c/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Need to do
• Stop destroying, promote re-growth of natural areas (forests)
• Burn less (fossil fuels, forest fires etc)

Summary
• O2
• Atomic #8
• Uses – oxidation reactions for respiratory functions – humans, animals, plant, some bacterias etc
• Sources – photolysis, photosynthesis
• Reservoir – bio-/atmos-/litho- sphere
