The Air in General There also many trace gases which are basically different polluted gases in our air: -carbon dioxide -methane gases Other chemicals in our environment are: -Formaldehyde: it is released by building materials -Acrolein: is released from heating oil to really high temperatures, and from cigarette smoke -Respirable particles: it is released from tobacco Our air around us consists of (approximately): -78% of NITROGEN -21% oxygen -1% ARGON

Other Interesting Information When there is a decrease in oxygen in the body it is called hypoxia, and when there is a complete loss of oxygen in the body/brain it is called anoxia. When you have gone 4 or more minutes without oxygen in the body it can be very fatal. When this happens the brain cells start to die and this can cause brain damage and ultimately death. When a newborn breathes they breath at about 40 breaths per minute and when they sleep it slows down between 20 and 40 breaths per minute. An average aults breath between 12 and 16 breaths per minute, and when you add physical exercise to their day to day life an average adult will breath 45 breaths per minute.
