Animals, plants and many other living organisms inhale oxygen to "burn" (oxidize) compounds like sugar into CO 2 and water—a process during which the energy-rich molecule ATP is produced.

Trees don’t just exhale oxygen—they also consume it in a process known as cellular respiration ... oxygen production and consumption, modern ecosystems barely budge oxygen levels in the ...
