b.
they eliminated the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun.
c.

d.
they absorbed ozone molecules from the atmosphere.

The correct answer is option - C. They replaced carbon dioxide with oxygen in the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Cyanobacteria or Blue-green algae is a group of bacteria that is making its own food using water and carbon dioxide in the presence of sunlight, the process of photosynthesis

These organisms release oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis in the atmosphere. Through this process, these organisms replaced carbon dioxide with oxygen in the atmosphere in the early earth.
