What happens during the intake stroke of a four-stroke internal combustion engine?

A. The piston moves downward, creating a partial vacuum that draws in air and fuel.
B. The piston moves downward as a result of the air/fuel mixture doing work on it.
C. The piston moves upward, compressing the air/fuel mixture and raising its temperature.
D. The piston moves upward, doing work on the air/fuel mixture to push it out of the cylinder.
