Answer:

C. Plants use water, carbon dioxide, and the energy from the sun to carry out the process of photosynthesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this scenario, the geosphere is represented by the plants, which are rooted in the Earth's surface. The hydrosphere is represented by the water that the plants use, and the atmosphere is represented by the carbon dioxide that the plants take in through photosynthesis. This interaction involves the exchange of matter and energy between the three spheres, with the plants using water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight to produce energy and oxygen.
