O2 Sensor Broken?

[suddste]

Hello,

I've been trying to find whats causing my lack of power issue for a while now., I was told to look at the o2 sensor readings but I dont know whats right and whats wrong. I think I may have found that one of the o2 sensors is hardly reading at all but I dont know if my focus has two o2 sensors or not. I have supplied a pic of readings connected to my OBD port. If it turns out my car has two sensors, then I beleive the 2nd (straight line reading) is wrong?

Could it be this sensor thats causing my lack of powerr, and if it is, is it easy/cheap to change?

thanks, but do you know if the pic looks right for o2 sensors? I thought they should be both alternating like the one on the left
