Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of skin cancer and usually occurs on sun-exposed areas of the skin. It is slow-growing and rarely metastasizes. It appears as a small, translucent papule with rolled borders that may ulcerate and bleed.

A. "I should apply sunscreen prior to going outside, even in the winter months." B. "I used to lie in the sun all the time, but now I know the tanning bed is a better option." C. "My father was treated for melanoma, but skin cancer isn't related to genetics." D. "Because I'm dark-complected, I won't have to worry about skin cancer."

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

This is because sunscreen protects the skin from ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which is a major risk factor for skin cancer. UV radiation can damage DNA and cause mutations that lead to abnormal cell growth and division. Sunscreen should be applied every day, regardless of the season or weather, as UV rays can penetrate clouds and reflect off snow and water.
