Large amounts of oxygen gas first appeared in earth's atmosphere about years ago. 500,000 3.5 million 10 million 2.7 billion 3.5 billion

2.7 billion

Explanation:

This period is referred to as the Great Oxygenation Event. This period saw the evolution of photosynthetic organisms (cyanobacteria) that utilized carbon dioxide (that dominated the atmosphere then) and sunlight to manufacture their energy molecules-glucose. Photosynthesis produces oxygen as a byproduct that is evolved into the atmosphere. As these photosynthetic organisms proliferated on earth, the atmosphere composition changed to become partly dominated by oxygen (which is an oxidaton agent) with less and less carbon dioxide.

i'm sorry, but can you list the answers? i cannot with something i don't know the answers to
