Answer

B
Plants take in carbon dioxide from the air.
C
During photosynthesis, plants make food and release oxygen into the air.
D
Energy stored in plants is transferred to humans and animals that eat them.

Explanation

Earth’s biosphere includes living things. When humans and animals eat plants, energy moves from one living thing to another, so the interaction involves only the biosphere. The other choices also involve water, soil, or air, which are parts of other Earth spheres.
