Explanation:

The Calvin cycle (also known as the Calvin-Benson cycle or the carbon fixation cycle of photosynthesis) consists of a series of biochemical processes that are carried out in the stroma of the chloroplasts of photosynthetic organisms.

The reactions of the Calvin cycle belong to the so-called independent phase of light, which is responsible for fixing the CO2, incorporating it into the organic matter of the individual in the form of glucose by means of the RuBisCo enzyme. It should be noted that this set of reactions is mistakenly called the dark phase, since many of the enzymes in the process, including RuBisCo, depend on the activation of the ferredoxin-thioredoxin system, which is only found in its active form (the reduced one) in the presence of the light.

Lesechka [4]

No their babies won't look alike.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Both the couples mentioned here i.e. Sally - Harry and Emily - Ken are both identical twins. So they have similar pairs of genetic setup. This was possible because they developed from same zygote.

But during gametogenesis, crossing over and independent assortment occurs which brings about variation in genetic setup among the offspring. And it's very less probable that same crossing over will occur between the gametes of these couples. So, their offsprings won't look same.

ankoles [38]

Answer:

The thyroid gland increase in size.

Explanation:

Iodine plays an important role in the generation of thyroid hormones and is mainly found in the soil in coastal areas and in seawater. In the developing nations, the individuals who live at high elevations or inland are generally deficient in iodine and can develop a condition known as goiters.  

In the condition, the thyroid gland increases in size in an attempt to get more iodine. However, in the countries where iodine is added routinely to foods and table salt, the lack of dietary iodine is not the typical reason of goiters.
