Biology

Answer:

Skin cancer is the uncontrolled growth of skin cells.  

Explanation:

They grow and divide without stopping, and they can spread to other places in your body.

Skin cancer is frequently caused by exposure to ultraviolet rays from the sun or from tanning beds.

The UV light can cause mutations in your skin’s DNA so it can’t control skin cell growth. The result is often skin cancer.

Answer:

Skin cancer refers to the abnormal activity of skin cells associated with carcinogenesis
