The skin possesses a number of amazing protective properties, and one of the most notable is skin coloration as a protection against U.V. irradiation. Briefly, describe the anatomical, biochemical and physical means by which the skin adapts to U.V. radiation. How does light (U.V.) potentially disrupt cellular function and how is melanin poised to protect against damage. Describe four features of melanin as it relates to interpersonal differences between individuals, and what impact does this have on rates of skin cancer. Describe at least one method used to associate U.V. irradiation with either skin damage or repair.
Answer:
Melanin is a skin pigment.
Explanation:
Melanin is a skin pigment that is present in the bottom layer of the skin's epidermis. Melanin may help protect the skin from Ultraviolet rays. Increasing in the concentration of melanin may block processes in the body that lead to skin cancer. Ultraviolet light kills cells by damaging their DNA. The light starts a reaction between two molecules of thymine which is one of the bases that is responsible for the formation of DNA molecule. Melanin has the ability to absorb Ultraviolet light which automatically protects skin cells. The presence of melanin in the skin decreases the rate of skin cancer diseases around the world.

1. Have you ever heard the term willful blindness? What do you think that it means? What could this mean in relation to health?
2. When it comes to health-related issues such as depression, child abuse, domestic violence, drug abuse, or disease, in what ways do people exercise willful blindness? Why would they want to?
3. Margaret Heffernan tells the story of a Montana town that had an 80 percent higher rate of disease than anywhere else in the country. If the people of this town had not been so willfully blind and had listened to Gayla Benefield, how might the health and lives of the people in this town have been different?
4. Why do you think that none of the medical professionals in the town of Libby, Montana, questioned the health issues that were plaguing their town?
5. Based on this video, how might you have reacted differently if you had been a member of the community in Libby, Montana?
6. When it comes to health-related issues or problems, how do you know when it is necessary to contact a medical professional? Are there exceptions to this?
7. Can you think of a situation in your life where you were willfully blind? If so, why do you think that you were willfully blind?
8. Do you believe the saying, “ignorance is bliss” to be true? What other stories that Margaret Heffernan tells in the video illustrate the saying “ignorance is bliss”?
Have i heard of it? erm, No-
I think it means that they have no idea what's going on?
I am not sure to be honest..-
Well, If that had happened I beleave that they have no idea what their going through and they do other things to get their mind off of all the abuse ect.
It might of helped them because if they had listened to Gayla, they would not had many problems as they do when they didn't listen. The town might have had a better chance of making their living stiles better. their homes, lives, and how they get their foods.
They didn't question it because of the fact that it was normal in their home town. They didn't think anything about it.
Not sure to be honest. And what video?
If I had a medical problem I would contact a profecional immedietly incase it gets worse and it eventually kills me. and i dont know..-
Think of a siuation? When I didn't know I was getting mentally abused. I had no idea that it was happening to me.
"Ignorance is bliss"? I never heard of it but I do understand it, yes. And I am not completely sure.
I hope my answers help you! :)
