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

Explanation:
Xerostomia (hypo functioning of salivary glands )
The reason for the loss of color after the industrial revolution is that the light-colored moths were "selected against" by predators. These birds could only see the light ones against the newly dark, sooted background. Over time, these predators could no longer distinguish the dark ones from their natural dark, sooted background. Thus more light-colored moths stood out against the dark soot, and were eaten. And more dark-colored moths eluded the birds, survived to reproduce, passing on more of their dominant genes for dark color to their offspring. After several decades of hundreds of thousands of generations, most of the later generations were dark, due to selective advantage of camouflage to survive predation.
