There are a very few amount of advantages of you having lactose intolerance but one is you have digestive problems it helps a little but the disadvatage is dosen't give all the nutrients refular milk gives you!

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.

jeka57 [31]

Answer:Adaptation in Darwins Finches. Beak depth, which is correlated with body size and the ability to crack larger seeds, varies according to drought conditions: plants produce fewer, harder seeds in dry years and more, softer seeds in wet years. Only larger birds with deeper depths survive in drought years.

What do the variables in the Hardy-Weinberg equation represent? p p2 q q2 2pq frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype arr
kompoz [17]

Explanation:

In Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium...

p^{2} + 2pq +q^{2} = 1

p represents the dominant allele frequency

q represents the frequency of the recessive allele

q^2 = the genotypic frequency of the homozygous recessive

p^2= the genotypic frequency of the homozygous dominant

2pq= the frequency of the heterozygous genotype

Further Explanation:

Sequences of DNA make up genes which can have different forms called alleles. DNA, which makes up the genotype, is transcribed into mRNA and later translated into amino acids which are linked together by rRNA to form proteins which make up the phenotype of an organism. Mutations in DNA sequences form new alleles, and affect the corresponding mRNA and thus the protein encoded. Along with genetic drift, selective mating and natural selection, evolution may occur within populations.

Some alleles become fixed within a population over time. In Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for a specific gene that is not undergoing evolution- allelic frequencies are stable over several generations. During this period, mutations do not occur within the population.
