Cancer

Question 5 • *CR Foundations of Personal Wellness S2 [ELECTIVE, Y4904OX]

Discuss the two main causes of skin cancer.

Answer

Answer:

Answers will vary but should relate to exposure to solar radiation and artificial sources. The greater the intensity and time of exposure, the greater the chances of developing skin cancer. Melanoma risks are greater from high-intensity exposure when you are young. Squamous cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma risks are greater with cumulative lifetime exposure.
