What if the world lost oxygen for 5 seconds?
Would it have any long-term effects on the environment if the oxygen disappeared and then returned after 5 seconds?
Yes, there could be some long-term effects. If only certain regions of the Earth lost oxygen, it could lead to a mass extinction event for the organisms living in those areas. Additionally, the sudden influx of oxygen after a period of depletion could also lead to changes in atmospheric chemistry that would have long-term effects on the planet's climate.
