During respiration some energy is lost as heat. This best describes the second law of thermodynamics, which states that "Some useful energy is lost as heat whenever an energy transfer occurs".

When energy is converted from one form to another form in the body which energy is lost?
mostly heat energy
When energy is converted from one form to another what is the lost energy called?
heat
Is usable energy lost each time energy is converted to another form of energy?
Yes.
What if one form of energy is converted into another there is always some energy lost as?
heat
In what form is energy usually lost when it is being converted from one form to another?
Heat or light. By the way, the energy is not 'lost', but rather turned into a different form of energy.

Energy that is lost to heat has merely been converted to another form not lost forever?
true
Can energy be converted from one form into another?
Yes, any form of energy can be converted into any other form, although the conversion process is not 100% efficient and there will be some energy lost.
Where does the lost energy go?
energy is never lost. It is either converted from one form of energy to another (from heat to mechanical, from mechanical to electric, from electric to heat).
Where does the energy go?

When heat is converted to another form of energy there is loss of energy?
The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, so the total energy in an isolated system remains constant. Since no machine is 100% efficient, it may seem that energy is being lost, but the "lost" energy is just converted to a different form.
When a moving object hits another can energy be lost?
No energy is lost in such a collision, although kinetic energy is converted into thermal and possibly into potential energy.
When one form of energy is converted to one another form of energy is energy lost or gained?
it depends on conversion. wind to wind energy. Sun to solar Energy. and water to hydro have no loss only gained but on other hand electric to heat energy like also some heat will be lost. in nuclear energy some energy also lost during conversion.
