Answer:

Most likely diagnosis is Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC), most likely caused by years of prolonged exposure to sunlight over time.

Explanation:

Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) is a common type of skin cancer that develops when the basal cells that is responsible for producing new skin cells when they die, become mutated and causes the basal cell to abnormally multiply rapidly and continues to grow. The accumulation of these abnormal cells is what results  in cancerous tumors that appears like ulcers on the skin. Prolong and intense exposure to the ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sunlight has been linked to the most likely cause for the mutation of the DNA in the basal cells which leads the abnormal cell growth and multiplication. People who expose themselves to the radiation of the sun for longer periods, over time, are at high risk of developing this cancer.

Leona [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is C: Derived from oils and the fat of meat

Explanation:

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Each amino acid is composed of a monomer, and these monomers join together to form a complex molecule called polypeptides.

For example, hemoglobin is an oxygen-carrying protein in the red blood cells. It is a globular protein and is made up of two polypeptide sub units. It consists of two alpha and two bets chains.

Proteins are rich energy units and there are different sources of proteins such as beans, pulses, seeds, nuts, milk, and yogurt, etc.
