Answer:

.It is lost as heat due to energy transformation.

Explanation:

When plants make sugar they convert light energy into chemical energy. The heat energy released is equivalent to the light energy which a plant requires to make sugar out of carbondioxide and water. During photosynthesis, energy of light is absorbed by chlorophyll and is lost as heat due to energy transformation.
