As we have learnt,

Carbon dioxide is released in the atmosphere by respiration, burning of fossil fuels and by decomposition of limestone. It is also emitted during volcanic eruptions.

\mathrm{C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}+6O_{2}\longrightarrow 6CO_{2}+6H_{2}O}

\mathrm{CaCO_{3}\rightarrow CaO+CO_{2}}

Therefore, carbon dioxide is produced in all the given processes.

Thus, the correct answer is Option (4)
