  2. Aerotaxis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerotaxis

    Aerotaxis. Aerotaxis [1] is the movement caused by oxygen gradients. Positive aerotaxis involves the movement toward higher concentration of environmental oxygen, while negative aerotaxis involves the movement towards a lower concentration of environmental oxygen. [2] Aerotactic bacteria gather around sources of air forming aerotactic bands.

  3. Oxygen cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_cycle

    The oxygen cycle is the biogeochemical cycle of oxygen atoms between different oxidation states in ions, oxides, and molecules through redox reactions within and between the spheres/reservoirs of the planet Earth. [1] The word oxygen in the literature typically refers to the most common oxygen allotrope, elemental/diatomic oxygen (O 2 ), as it ...

  4. Anaerobic respiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaerobic_respiration

    Anaerobic respiration is a critical component of the global nitrogen, iron, sulfur, and carbon cycles through the reduction of the oxyanions of nitrogen, sulfur, and carbon to more-reduced compounds. The biogeochemical cycling of these compounds, which depends upon anaerobic respiration, significantly impacts the carbon cycle and global warming.

  5. Greenhouse gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenhouse_gas

    : 139 The increased concentration of greenhouse gases is also cooling the upper atmosphere, as it is much thinner than the lower layers, and any heat re-emitted from greenhouse gases is more likely to travel further to space than to interact with the fewer gas molecules in the upper layers. The upper atmosphere is also shrinking as the result.

  6. Microaerophile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microaerophile

    They can be found evenly spread throughout the test tube. A microaerophile is a microorganism that requires environments containing lower levels of dioxygen than that are present in the atmosphere (i.e. < 21% O 2; typically 2–10% O 2) for optimal growth. [1] A more restrictive interpretation requires the microorganism to be obligate in this ...

  7. Oxygen effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_effect

    A key observation limiting hypotheses to explain the biological mechanisms of the oxygen effect is that the gas nitric oxide is a radiosensitizer with similar effects to oxygen observed in tumour cells. Another important observation is that oxygen must be present at irradiation or within milliseconds afterward for the oxygen effect to take place.

  8. Geological history of oxygen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geological_history_of_oxygen

    Oxygen began building up in the atmosphere at approximately 1.85 Ga. At current rates of primary production, today's concentration of oxygen could be produced by photosynthetic organisms in 2,000 years. [4] In the absence of plants, the rate of oxygen production by photosynthesis was slower in the Precambrian, and the concentrations of O 2 ...

  9. Reactive oxygen species - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactive_oxygen_species

    In chemistry and biology, reactive oxygen species ( ROS) are highly reactive chemicals formed from diatomic oxygen ( O2 ), water, and hydrogen peroxide. Some prominent ROS are hydroperoxide (O 2 H), superoxide (O 2- ), [1] hydroxyl radical (OH. ), and singlet oxygen. [2] ROS are pervasive because they are readily produced from O 2, which is ...
