C.Through photosynthesis, energy stored in plants is released into the air.
D.Through photosynthesis, energy stored in plants is transferred to humans who eat them.

Answer 1

B.During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide from the air.

Step-by-step explanation:

A.During photosynthesis, plant roots take in water from soil. - water is part of the hydrosphere, not the atmosphere.

B.During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide from the air. - this is true, the plant - a living thing and part of the biosphere - takes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to use during photosynthesis.

C.Through photosynthesis, energy stored in plants is released into the air. - this is false, plants release oxygen into the atmosphere as part of photosynthesis , which synthesises glucose. It does not release energy.

D.Through photosynthesis, energy stored in plants is transferred to humans who eat them. - this is true, but does not involve the atmosphere (air in the environment)
