A second home is a residence that you intend to occupy in addition to a primary residence for part of the year. Typically, a second home is used as a vacation home, though it could also be a property that you visit on a regular basis, such as a condo in a city where you frequently conduct business. Often, to qualify for a second-home loan, the property must be located in a resort or vacation area (such as the mountains or near the ocean) or a certain distance from the borrower's primary residence.
The primary function of the Calvin cycle is to synthesize simple sugars from Carbon Dioxide.
1 In this process, carbon dioxide and water are converted into organic compounds that are necessary for metabolic and cellular processes.  The three phases of the Calvin cycle, fixation, reduction, and regeneration require specific enzymes to ensure proper regulation.
