Oxygen is a chemical element with symbol O and atomic number 8. It is a member of the chalcogen group on the periodic table and is a highly reactive nonmetallic element and oxidizing agent that readily forms compounds (notably oxides) with most elements. Photosynthesis releases oxygen, and respiration consumes oxygen.
Analysis of air bubbles trapped in fossils, such as in fossil amber, show that our air in earliest times contained about 35% oxygen. Today, the average oxygen content of our air is approximately 20%. In some larger, more polluted cities, oxygen content in the air has been measured at 12 - 15%.
