During the intake stroke of a naturally aspirated engine, a vacuum in created. Because the pressure inside the cylinder is now lower then atmospheric pressure, air enters the cylinder and the pressure is equalized.

Lousy wording of the answers. 
3. ...but I'd give the 2's a correct answer also. |

I agree with Mr. Bruce! #2! I think there is more vac with the down stroke and open valve than outside pres.

Go out to the garage, take off your aircleaner. Place you hand over the carb. What do you feel, NUTHIN'. Now start your engine, what do you feel, SUCTION.Piston PULLING the fuel/air charge into the cylinder.

When the piston goes down, it causes a vacuum - a volume of space in which the gaseous pressure is much less than standard atmospheric pressure. That would lead me to guess that the answer is #3 because when the valve opens the air would be pushed into the vacuum at a pressure of 14.7 lbs per square inch.

The Intake Stroke:
On the intake stroke, the intake valve has opened. The piston is moving down, and a mixture of air and vaporized fuel is being pushed by atmospheric pressure into the cylinder through the intake valve port.
I've worked with pumps for 30+ years. This is basic stuff.

So when I breath and my lungs expand....atmospheris pressure is filling my lungs, or are my lungs causing a vacuum sucking air in??
