Molds and fungi are found everywhere inside and outside, and can grow on almost any substance when moisture is present. Molds when they reproduce make spores, which can be carried by air currents. When these spores land on a moist surface that is suitable for life, they begin to grow. Molds are essential to the natural breakdown of organic materials in the environment. Mold is normally found indoors at levels that do not affect most healthy individuals. When these levels become abnormally high as determined by indoor air quality testing or a mold inspection, remediation is recommended to be carried out by a professional remediation company.

Lost to the environment in the form of heat.
Answer:
1) pathway taken by water
water is absorbed from the soil, through the root hair cells and is transported by the xylem vessel up the stem to the leaf and/or flowers. From the leaf, some water is lost to the atmosphere as vapors escape out through the stoma present in the lower epidermal layer of the leaves.
2) water potential gradient
water potential refers to the concentration of water present. A gradient forms when there is a difference between the concentrations of water in two regions separated by a partially permeable membrane.
Hence, water moving down a water potential gradient means that it goes from a region of high water potential to a region of low water potential.
3) There are tiny openings on the lower side of the leaves called as stomata (plural: stoma) that allow for gaseous exchange to occur. These openings are controlled by guard cells which are open during the day and close during the night.
Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
