  • Without oxygen living, things will not able to survive.

(C) Nitrogen-(IV) Proteins

  • Air is composed of 78% of Nitrogen.
  • Nitrogen is also a major component of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins.

(D) Ozone-(II)protection from UV rays

  • The stratosphere extends from the top of the troposphere to about 50 kilometres (31 miles) above the ground.
  • An ozone layer exists in the stratosphere.
  • This layer's ozone molecules absorb and alter the Sun's high-energy ultraviolet (UV) light.
