Hello True Beauty fan!

Most living things need oxygen to survive. Oxygen helps organisms grow, reproduce, and turn food into energy. . Oxygen gives our cells the ability to break down food in order to get the energy we need to survive.

Oxygen is essential to have efficient cellular respiration; most organisms need oxygen for a single purpose: to release energy from food for use by cells.
