The correct answer is C. Decomposers

Explanation:

In ecology, decomposers are organisms such as bacteria that mainly decompose or break in smaller particles dead organism or waste produced by them and by doing this, they return nutrients of the living organisms to the soil. Due to this, decomposers are essential for the natural cycle of many substances and they are in the last stage in many food chains. According to this, the soil bacteria described has the function of a decomposer because this breaks down the wastes returning essential nutrients such as nitrates to the soil.

A recessive allele causes phenylketonuria (PKU) when homozygote. If the frequency of the recessive allele is 0.05 in the populat
Radda [10]

Answer:

0.095

Explanation:

Phenylkentonuria is a disease caused by a recessive allele.

The frequency of the recessive allele + the frequency of the dominant allele equals 1.

The frequency of the recessive allele is q = 0.05

The frequency of the dominant allele then is p = 1  - q = 0.95

If people mate randomly, the frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype will be p², the frequency of the heterozygous genotype will be 2pq and the frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype will be q² .

2pq=2× 0.05 × 0.95

2pq=0.095

The heterozygote frequency in the population is 0.095
