All model output of massive star evolution, i.e. the paths in the HR diagram, the lifetimes, the surface and wind composition, the chemical yields and the nature of the progenitors of supernovae strongly depend on both mass loss and rotation. We examine here specifically the effects of mass loss and rotation on the chemical yields of CNO elements. A major effect is that the importance of mass loss depends on the metallicity Z of the galaxies. This may also be the case for stellar rotation in massive stars, in the sense that average rotation may be faster at lower metallicities.
