Correct answer: organisms exhale carbon dioxide.

Explanation: Breathing exchanges gases—organisms take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide. That released CO2 is part of the carbon cycle. (The chemical equation given describes cellular respiration, which produces CO2 and energy, but the direct link to the carbon cycle is that organisms exhale CO2.)
