Please help!!!
Carbon dioxide (CO2) becomes glucose as its bonds are broken and reformed through the process of photosynthesis. The image shows the orbital structures for each of its atoms.



Which best describes what happens when the bond between the atoms is formed?




A.
Carbon forms a bond with oxygen using van der Waals forces and dipole-dipole moments because bonds formed in this way break and reform easily.

B.
Carbon forms a covalent bond with oxygen. In this type of bond, electrons are shared and the forces of attraction and repulsion between atoms are balanced.

C.
Carbon forms an ionic bond with oxygen. Carbon gains the electrons and oxygen loses them. Carbon becomes negative and oxygen becomes positive.

D.
Carbon needs four electrons to complete its outer shell; therefore, like DNA and other biological molecules, carbon forms a hydrogen bond with oxygen.
