Answer:

D. The biosphere change the lithosphere

Explanation:

The red formed due to oxygen which is produced by plants in the process of photosynthesis. This oxygen then reacted with iron atom and formed oxidized iron layers of sedimentary rock. So here plants are responsible for the formation of these layers and we considered plants as part of biosphere so we can say that biosphere is responsible for the change of lithosphere.
