    The correct answer is 'more oxygen gas became present in the atmosphere'. Early prokaryotes were photosynthetic organisms; they used energy from the sun along with carbon dioxide to manufacture food. A known byproduct of this reaction is the release of oxygen. Over millions of years the concentration of oxygen built up in the atmosphere. Cyanobacteria are examples of such organisms.
