The right answer is Photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are both chemical reactions of the carbon cycle.

Plants convert CO2 and water into organic matter (carbohydrate) with a release of oxygen (O2). The consumer organisms recover this organic matter by ingesting it and breathing to live, by emitting CO2 which will then be captured by the plants.
