Question

During a trip, a lightly-pigmented individual is looking forward to lying on a beach and

working on his/her tan. Will evolution take place by developing a tan? Explain.

Answer 1

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Evolution is a process by which a species accumulates and adopts genetic changes in order to permanently change their genetic codes. Gaining a tan is the process of your skin cells being fried by UV light. Therefore, tanning is not an evolutionary act.
