B. Human skin color variation is primarily determined by the type and amount of melanin pigment in the skin.

D. Human skin color variation likely evolved in response to differences in the intensity of sunlight around the world.

E. Human skin color variation evolved recently in hominid evolution, once some populations of our human ancestors migrated out of Africa.

The cause of skin color variation in humans are melanin in the skin, amount of UV exposure, genetics, the quality of melanosomes, and pigments present in the skin they all play vital role in skin variation. Colors present in human skin are caused by 4 chromophores carotenoids, hemoglobin, melanin, and oxyhemoglobin.

For the arctic fox, enzymes coded by specific genes are periodically "switched on or off" depending on the temperature.

Thus, the change in colour can be EXPLAINED by the expression of certain genes affected by temperature
