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

Agriculture depends on the conservation of our most precious natural resources: <em>water, land, and biodiversity.</em>
Answer:
B) Natural selection favored rabbits that were resistant to the virus
Explanation:
Most likely, virus resistance occurred over time, as a consequence of mutation. Individuals that carried the resistance mutation become favourable by natural selection.
Natural selection is evolutionary mechanism which favours traits of an organism that help him survive and reproduce (increase organism's fitness). In the example above, resistant rabbits that survived had the favorable trait (resistance) by natural selection.
