Nope. You would just assume that the related species 'lost' that particular gene.

Evolution is unfalsifiable since the 'fact' that it occurred is assumed 'a priori'.

You do not show that evolution is non-falsifiable by making presumptious pronouncements.

Incorrect. Evolution is concluded from observations, and further reaffirmed by the lack of defined contradictory observations, such as precambrian rabbit fossils or transposons present in two related species but absent in another.
