Answer:

Recent studies have shown that dark skin colour was developed in the past for protection against cancer. Scientists claim that in the past natural selection favoured humans having dark colour as compared to humans having a fair colour.

None of the other answers could be counted as correct here. 

While A - a heart attack is conceptualy similar, when we're talking about a heart attack, we're talking about not enough oxygen that gets delivered to the heart - because something is blocking it. 

C - hypertension on the other hand means someone has a higher blood pressure than is usual for a regular human being, which puts more strain on his cardiovascualr system.
