a bit earlier in this report, UV radiation can cause our skin cells to mutate. The high energy waves actually damage the chromosomes in our DNA. One common mutation that occurs is the alteration of the chromosome that codes for a specific tumor suppressor gene. These genes are incredibly important in regulating the cell cycle and damage may result in uncontrolled cell division and the formation of…
