Iodine it is an element that is required for the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormones.
The body does not produce iodine on its own so it needs to come from dietary sources like eggs, prunes bananas, shrimp, cod, etc or you can take supplements of iodine.
When you consume iodine it quickly absorbed and enters into your bloodstream and thenyour thyroid that has tiny cells that capture the circulating iodine and takes in and oxidizes it so it can begin to be used to create (T3) and (T4 which are thyroid hormones.

Answer:

We could feed them with another type of food free of silver salts.

Explanation:

When talking about a phenocopy, we are referring to individuals who genotypically should be expressing a determined phenotype, but due to environmental influence, they express another phenotype. This is a non-inheritable phenotype, so it is not considered a mutation.

If we grow thy flies feeding them another type of food that does not include silver salts, and let them mate and reproduce, they will express the real phenotype, because they will not be influenced by the food. In the following generation, there will be dark individuals carrying the dominant allele, and yellow individuals, with the recessive genotype.
