Can you please check my answers.

1) What carries energy through wire?
electrons

2) What happens to some of the energy when it moves through the wire?
becomes lost due to the movement of energy requiring some kinetic energy

3) If a resistance is large, why does the wire heat up?
electrons gather in the same area of the wire, bumping and chrashing into each other and giving off heat. The higher the resistance, the more electrons, the hotter it gets.

1 is incomplete. Electrons themselves do not carry energy. What kind of energy do you suppose they carry?

2. How? What does "due to movement"mean?

3. Nonsense. What is resistance?
