This is because the melanocytes are located in the stratum basale. Lighter-skinned people usually have low basal levels, and exposure to UV radiation causes an increase which makes skin darker.
Light is a form of EM radiation.
EM radiation has no mass (it's just energy packets called photons).
EM radiation can travel through a vacuum. (The speed of light in a vacuum is called c and is around 300,000 m/s).
Hope this helps!

Explanation:
Answer: (c) seed type
Explanation:
An independent variable is the one which can be altered or manually manipulated in an experiment. The effect of such manipulation can be examined on the dependent variable of the experiment. The dependent variable cannot be manipulated in an experiment instead it is the outcome of the experiment.
The seed type is the correct answer because the seed type can vary and the effect of which can be examined on the seed germination process and rate of seed germination.
<u>Answer</u>:
1. Type of medium - the nutrient availability is one of the vital factors for the growth of a bacterial colony. Thus, the used growth medium will fulfill this requirement.
2. Incubation temperature - all bacteria have an optimal temperature range in which maximum growth is achieved. Any variations from this will result in negative effects on the amount of bacteria that are produced.
3. Moisture - bacteria thrive in moist or wet environments. Thus, the availability of moisture is another vital factor for the growth of the colony.
