Answer 1

False

Oxygen is not passed through the food chain in the same way that nutrients or energy are. The process of photosynthesis produces oxygen primarily in plants, which is then used by animals for respiration. The transfer of oxygen does not happen in the same manner as energy and matter transfer through trophic levels.
