M. A change that causes the gene to increase the amount of lactase ir produces will increase a person's ability to break down lactose

Explanation:

Lactose is a sugar found in dairy products. Humans require an enzyme, called lactase, to break down the sugar in the body. This enzyme is produced by the lactase gene.

Some people have some variation in their gene that means they do not produce very much lactase. This means they do not produce sufficient amount of the enzyme to break down the sugar lactose found in milk. This causes them to feel ill and get abdominal pain when they eat dairy, because their body can't break down the sugar.

Therefore, a change in the gene that causes it to produce more lactase will make people more able to consume lactase. A change that decreases the amount of lactase enzyme will have the opposite effect.

The source of protein and minerals found in dairy are not processed by lactase, so R is not correct.
