Answer: heat

Explanation:

Infrared radiation is popularly known as "heat radiation",[21] but light and electromagnetic waves of any frequency will heat surfaces that absorb them. Infrared light from the Sun accounts for 49%[22] of the heating of Earth, with the rest being caused by visible light that is absorbed then re-radiated at longer wavelengths
