An hypothesis is a possible explanation for a set of observations or answer to a scientific question. A supposition or proposed explanation made on the   
basis of limited evidence as a starting point for further  
 investigation. 
 And practically, an hypothesis is used as the basis for further experiments, where the hypothesis is rigorously tested under varying conditions. The hypothesis that is tested and modified under different conditions may become a general 
 theory
 .The hypothesis that has the least number of variables sufficient to explain the phenomenon is preferred.

Six fingered offspring are formed from normal parents, why?
Kruka [31]
Dominant' traits will actually disappear faster if they are disadvantageous.

Think about it: if everyone who has even a single copy of a particular allele is at a disadvantage (manifests the phenotype, in this case six fingers), then even single copies are selected against.

In the case of recessive traits, selection occurs only against homozygous carriers, who may be very rare if the allele itself is rare.

A concrete example would be something like Tay-Sachs disease. If the allele that causes this were dominant, every carrier would die before adulthood, and it would occur only as a very rare de novo mutation. But because it is recessive, it persists for now; heterozygous carriers have no disadvantage.

HURRY PLEASE!! Explain how the DNA molecule is stabilized but also able to be changed.
alexandr1967 [171]
The nitrogenous bases placed in between the DNA double helix strands, like rungs on a ladder, are positioned there because of the hydrophobic effect and are stabilized by hydrogen bonding. The stability of DNA also relies on the interactions between the hydrogen bonds between bases, hydrogen bonds between bases and surrounding water, and base interaction between neighboring bases.

Hydrogen bonds are able to stabilize the DNA double helix by pairing up with their complementary base pairs (guanine with cytosine and adenine with thymine)

Hope this was able to help you! I went through my answer and bolded the more important parts, and parts more useful for answering the question.
