"Lactose intolerance" means that your stomach has an extremely hard time digesting lactose, found in dairy products such as milk. For the second part of the question, can you tell me if you mean adapting to resist against lactose or the development of lactose from a long time ago.
Answer:
B) a nonsense mutation; this is because a nonsense mutation results in the change of a regular amino acid codon into a stop codon, which ceases translation. This fits with the problem's description of the protein that causes the symptoms as too short, as translation is the process by which proteins/polypeptides are created. A missense mutation would not be the answer because it still codes for an amino acid, which would not shorten the protein. A duplication of the gene would probably just lengthen the protein or not affect its length at all.
The answer is asexual reproduction. This type of reproduction does not involve fusion of gametes. The offspring arise from a single organism and inherit the genes of that parent only. Consequently, there is little variation from parent compared to sexual reproduction.
