Which of the following choices best describes the information shown in this diagram? The bacterium takes in carbon dioxide, water, and solar energy. It then synthesizes these elements into fuel for
itself, releasing oxygen as a byproduct.

The bacterium expels oxygen, making room for
hydrogen peroxide and carbon dioxide. These elements are then combined with solar energy to produce fuel.

The bacterium absorbs carbon and hydrogen, combines these elements with solar energy to create fuel, then releases oxygen as a byproduct.

The bacterium absorbs carbon and water, combines
these elements with fuel and solar energy, allowing the bacterium to create its own oxygen.
