I am going to assume you meant lactose intolerance,, so i have written my answer based upon those who are lactose intolerant:
an evolutionary advantage is any trait that can increase the fitness of one person/group of people over another. this means that if someone has a trait that allows them to better obtain food or resources,, they would have an evolutionary advantage to better compete against another species or group of people. being lactose intolerant can allow you a better evolutionary advantage over those who dont in a couple ways. first off,, these people are more likely to live and thrive if dairy goes away. if dairy one day disappears,, most people who are not lactose intolerant will not know how to get those nutrients that the body needs that they had previously gotten from milk. these people would eventually die without these nutrients,, while those who are intolerant to lactose would continue to thrive because they have lived without these things their whole life and now how to get their needed nutrients.  along with that,, people with a lactose intolerance are better able to starve off predators if they needed to,, because all they would have to do is kill all the animals that produce dairy. those without a lactose intolerance would have to get rid of a lot more things in order to starve off those with a lactose intolerance.

Whereas superficial flexors in the anterior compartment of the forearm originate from the _____ epicondyle of the humerus, the s
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Whereas superficial flexors in the anterior compartment of the forearm originate from the medial epicondyle of the humerus, the superficial extensors in the posterior compartment of the forearm originate from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus.

Explanation:

The forearm has 2 compartments: an anterior compartment responsible for the flexion of the wrist, and a posterior compartment with the function to extend the wrist.

The superficial muscles in the anterior compartment arise from the common flexor tendon that originates from the medial epicondyle of the humerus. This compartment is mostly innervated by the median nerve.

The superficial muscles in the posterior compartment originate from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus and are innervated by the radial nerve.

The ulnar nerve innervates the flexor carpi ulnaris and flexor digitorum profundus in the forearm.
