Human History and Skin color
A person’s skin color is primarily determined by the amount and type of melanin, a pigment produced by specialized cells called melanocytes in the skin .When ultraviolet (UV) sunlight hits our skin, people react differently based on their skin color, which is shaped by biology and evolution.
