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. Oxygen is released as by products and diffuses out of the plant into the atmosphere.

Describe two ways that people contribute to the spread of antibiotic resistance.
frosja888 [35]
People contribute to <span>antibiotic resistance by not completing their full course of antibiotics as prescribed by doctors when they are sick. This allows the bacteria to adapt to the antibiotic because the incomplete treatment did not kill the bacteria. Another way in which bacteria are becoming resistant to antibiotics is the widespread use of antibiotics in everyday consumer products, such as cleaners and beauty products. These antibiotics end up in the environment, and diluted exposure to these antibiotics by bacteria allows the bacteria to develop a resistance.   </span>
