Oxygen is essential to life on

0:02

Earth. Its cycle, closely linked to those of

0:04

carbon and water, occurs

0:06

primarily between the atmosphere and

0:08

living organisms.

0:09

The main sources of

0:11

oxygen emissions are plants, such as

0:13

trees on land, and phytoplankton

0:16

in the oceans. In the atmosphere,

0:18

ultraviolet rays transform

0:20

oxygen into ozone;

0:21

this is a cycle. This radiation

0:24

also reduces ozone back to oxygen.

0:26

Ultraviolet rays also

0:28

produce oxygen through water molecules.

0:31

The main consumers of

0:33

oxygen are animals and

0:35

plants through respiration.

0:38

Human activities, such as the combustion of

0:39

fossil fuels, also use

0:41

oxygen. Volcanic activity

0:45

also consumes oxygen; this oxygen binds

0:47

to the carbon monoxide released during

0:49

eruptions. Some oxygen

0:51

disappears indirectly through

0:53

sedimentation at the bottom of the oceans. On

0:55

land, another part disappears through

0:57

the oxidation of minerals, such as...
