Answer: the correct answer is-

C) carbon dioxide.

Fossil fuels ( such as oil, coal, and natural gas that are formed by dead remains of life forms like animals and plants) are burnt in order to release the energy that is stored in them. This is also known as combustion and emits carbon dioxide, which is a greenhouse gas and contributes to the major global climate change.

Thus, option C) is the right answer.

Organisms that make their own organic compounds from inorganic substances are called

<h2>Autotrophic organism</h2>

Explanation:

Autotrophs make their own food. Typically, we think of plants as autotrophs, and this is true, but there are other kinds as well. Plants, algae, phytoplankton, and some bacteria are photosynthetic, meaning they use sunlight to make sugar, which they then use to make energy. Photosynthetic organisms are green because they contain a pigment called chlorophyll that does photosynthesis. Some other types of bacteria are also autotrophic, but they are chemosynthetic.
They use the energy stored in chemicals, usually released from deep sea vents, to make their food, and then energy. Green leaves make food through photosynthesis leaf Autotrophs form the basis of all food webs.
They gather energy from inorganic sources, like chemicals or the sun, and convert it into a form that other animals can use. Energy is transferred from the autotrophs to consumers that eat them, and then to carnivores that eat those animals. Without autotrophs, all of our food webs would collapse.
