Oxygen is necessary to sustain most terrestrial life. Oxygen is used in cellular respiration and many major classes of organic molecules in living organisms contain oxygen, such as proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and fats, as do the major constituent inorganic compounds of animal shells, teeth, and bone.
From wingtip to wingtip, P. sandersi measured at least 6.4 meters. The wandering albatross, the worldâs largest living bird, has a wingspan of 3.5 meters, and the giant, extinct South American condor, Argentavis magnificens, was right around 6 meters.
The maximum wingspan of the Great Albatross (genus Diomedea) is about 11 feet (3.3 m) from tip to tip. These large wings allow the albatross to fly long distances between isâ¦olated islands in their ocean habitats. Making the world better, one answer at a time.
