Answer:

Too much UV radiation from the sun or sunbeds can damage the genetic material (the DNA) in your skin cells. If enough DNA damage builds up over time, it can cause cells to start growing out of control, which can lead to skin cancer. Melanin protects skin from the sun's ultraviolet rays, which can burn the skin, and over time, could reduce its elasticity and cause a person to age prematurely. Suntanning occurs because exposure to sunlight causes the skin to produce more melanin and to darken.May

Well the effect that the sun has on the skin to cause cancer is UV radiation,and in that process the sun damages genetic matter in your skin cells (DNA).And with that happening your cells (DNA) begin to (overgrow) in size and causes skin cancer.

Sister chromatids separate in anaphase of mitosis and anaphase Il of meiosis

Explanation:

After the interphase in the cell division cycle, the mitosis process begins, which is composed of 4 phases, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. The prophase occurs when the chromatin is condensed and the mitotic spindle is formed, the metaphase the chromosomes align along the cell equator, in the anaphase the separation of the sister chromatids occurs and in the telophase finally the heterochromatin is converted into euchromatin and the envelope is formed nuclear cell.

Meiosis, which is the cell division of germ cells, also has the same phases but they occur on two occasions: prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I and telophase I for meiosis I and for meiosis II, prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II and telophase II. In the anaphase I the homologous chromosomes are separated, they are condensed in the prophase II while in anaphase II the chromatids are separated.

Arturiano [62]
Incomplete dominance is a form of intermediate inheritance in which one allele for a specific trait is not completely expressed over its paired allele. This results in a third phenotype in which the expressed physical trait is a combination of the phenotypes of both alleles.
