  • Together, nitrogen, oxygen and argon make up 99.93% of our air. So what’s the other .07%? Find out what makes up the air you breathe.
    --
    Take a deep breath. In a single intake of air, your lungs swell with roughly 25 sextillion molecules, ranging from days-old compounds, to those formed billions of years in the past. In fact, many of the molecules you’re breathing were likely exhaled by members of ancient civilizations and innumerable humans since. But what exactly are we all breathing? Amy Hrdina and Jesse Kroll investigate.
    Lesson by Amy Hrdina and Jesse Kroll, directed by Sharon Colman.

      No. Nicotine is addictice because it disrupts receptors and you need to take higher doses to have the same effect. Addictive substances are the ones that you need to take in more and more.
      The closest phenomenon to what you're saying is dependency. For example, antidepressants are generally non-addictive but people do not want to stop taking them since quitting antidepressants can bring depression back. They do not need to take more antidepressants. So, it's not addiction. Breathing is like dependency. You don't need to breathe more and more to have the same effect but you need to take it to prevent withdrawal (death in this case).

    I've been looking into air composition today and I've noticed that most sources for info put carbon dioxide content at somewhere between 0.053% and 0.047%.
    Not a huge disparity in total percentage, yet it seems significantly different to me.
    Are the differences reflective of when these measurements were taken, which years I mean?
    Just trying to wrap my head around the idea that maybe this is an indicator of CO2 buildup between earlier measurements and current ones, or if this is just indicative of a margin for error.
