If much of the oxygen in the air disappeared, animals would not be able to survive. But
animal are breathing in oxygen every day. Why doesn’t the air ever run out of oxygen?
Plants help provide the oxygen that animals need to survive when you breath out, you
release carbon dioxide into the air. Carbon dioxide is made up of two elements, carbon and
oxygen. To make their own food, plants use carbon dioxide from the air. Then they release
oxygen as a waste product. Humans and other animals breathe in oxygen and release carbon
dioxide. This cycle is known as the oxygen-carbon dioxide cycle.
About eighty present of the oxygen used by animals is replaced by algae. Algae are
classified as neither plants nor animal, but as protists. They have chlorophyll and can make
their own food by photosynthesis. Algae live world-wide, in oceans, freshwater, and even on
land. Plants living on land replace the remaining twenty percent of the oxygen used by animals.
Because of the oxygen-carbon dioxide cycle, the amount of oxygen in the air stays fairly
constant. As long as there are enough plants on earth to release oxygen, we will never run out.

A flood is a rise of water with no place to go. Floods come in all depths, from just a
couple inches to many feet. The power of floodwater is extraordinary and lethal. In less than
an hour, strong rain can turn an ankle deep creek into an unstoppable 30-foot-high swell that
overpowers everything in its path.
Floods occur all over the world. Causes of floods include hurricanes, broken levees or
dams, rapidly thawing snow, ice jams, and heavy slow moving rain or repeated rains. A flood
can happen in a few minutes, hours, days, or over weeks.
No matter how quickly it happens or the cause, flooding is deadly. Floods kill more
people and cause more damage than other severe weather related events. Many die trying to
drive or walk through a flooded area. Just six inches of water can knock a person off their feet.
Just two feet of water can carry a car away.
