False. Oxygen is not passed through the food chain in the same way that nutrients or energy is transferred between trophic levels. While oxygen is essential for the survival of many living organisms and is used in cellular respiration, it is not a substance that is transferred from one trophic level to another like food or energy. Rather, oxygen is produced by plants and some microorganisms during photosynthesis and consumed by animals during respiration.
Oxygen is passed from one living form to another through each trophic level of the food chain. (1 point) Responses True True False
