Lactose tolerance:

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lactose tolerance evolved along with the ability to herd dairy animals. This is because the consumption of milk and other dairy products provided a significant nutritional advantage, particularly in regions where plant-based foods were not easily accessible. As a result, over time, those populations that could digest lactose (the primary sugar found in milk) into adulthood had a selective advantage and were more likely to survive and pass on their genetic traits to future generations.
