When skin is exposed to certain ultraviolet rays, the cells produce more melanin, causing the skin to darken. Over time, the cel
ls can be damaged by these ultraviolet rays, which can lead to skin cancers. Which conclusion can most likely be drawn about the rates of skin cancer? A. Skin cells with a low concentration of melanin have the lowest risk of developing into cancer cells.
B. Skin cells with a high concentration of melanin have the highest risk of developing into cancer cells.
C. Skin cells with a low concentration of melanin have a lower risk of developing into cancer cells than cells with a high concentration of melanin.
D. Skin cells with a high concentration of melanin have a lower risk of developing into cancer cells than cells with a low concentration of melanin.
The traits an organism displays are ultimately determined by the genes it inherited from its parents, in other words by its genotype. Animals have two copies of all their chromosomes, one from each parent.
