False.
Oxygen is not primarily transferred along trophic levels like food energy or nutrients. Organisms obtain O2 from the air or water for respiration (and producers release O2 via photosynthesis). While oxygen atoms in organic molecules can move through the food chain, atmospheric oxygen cycles independently rather than being passed from prey to predator as a trophic transfer.
