The correct answer is option D, that is, carbon dioxide.

Explanation:

The biosphere refers to a global ecosystem comprising of the nonliving or abiotic factors and living or biotic factors from which the energy and nutrients are obtained. It is the region of the atmosphere, surface, and hydrosphere of the Earth occupied by the living species.  

Carbon dioxide is an example of an inorganic matter of the biosphere. The majority of the organic compounds comprise hydrogen, carbon, and sometimes other elements like sulfur, nitrogen, phosphorus, or oxygen. However, carbon dioxide is not considered as an organic compound it is an example of inorganic compound as it does not comprise both hydrogen and carbon.  

One molecule of carbon dioxide comprises two atoms of oxygen and one atom of carbon. Thus, a sum of three atoms in one molecule of carbon dioxide is found.
