      I don’t get why everyone thinks melanin is so magical or special lol we all have it, many other animals have it. It just to protects you from uv damage from the sun. That’s why people who evolved in sunny climates have more and people that evolved in less sunny climates have less.

      Absolutely!! I love the simplicity of the way this video was explained. According to the Genome project, we are all genetically 99.9% the same. I’m working on a video that shows how mutations in our body can cause a change. For example, a mutation that omits tyrosinase in the melanin producing process can cause a baby to be an albino with no tanning ability.

Homo Sapiens were not the only ones who went from “hairy to sweaty”, as she shows in her favorite “timeline”. There are quite a few videos on UA-cam where she tells us about our shades.

So despite what society might think there are scientific advantages to having higher melanin but acceptance from others starts from accepting oneself.

      @ant7142 6 років тому +2

      Roedy Green
      There is a good reason why melanocytes dwell at the bottom and that is because the tissue around them are Avascular ( or have no blood vessels ) .Melanocytes need nutrients from the blood to continue producing melanin so that's why it stays as close to the bottom ( were blood vessels are ) as possible for it to continue its function.
      This is also why your skins cells closer to the top are dead cause they don’t have access to nutrients , but they don’t need to be alive to carry out their main function which is to be a barrier.

    Informative, but the video could be more specific. For example, "genetics determines both the baseline color and how much it can tan." That should have been followed by examples. What do melanin and melanosomes look like in fair-skinned people? What do they look like in dark-skinned people?
    Also, there is no mention of race. What are general differences in skin composition between people of European, Asian and African descent? I know that question is politically-incorrect, but it would make the video more honest.

    • @SemajSemaj
      @SemajSemaj 6 років тому +4

      That is because there is no such thing as race … the difference comes from gene mutations between different ethnic group gene pools. The reason why certain groups have a similar hue of skin color is because of genetic isolation like let's say the Japanese today. This is also why they look so much alike in terms of phenotype and features. This has nothing to do with race. Europeans are an extremely mixed people in terms of genetic phenotypes which is why they have the highest mutations as far as hair color, eye, color, and skin color. They are for sure the least distinct race and are not a race of people at all as they mixed with many Asian Phenotypes for thousands of years before isolating to Scandinavia another regions where there was more genetic isolation so they look more alike now. We are extremely brainwashed. There is no such thing as race. The genetic mutations through albinism is what made us have and lose pigmentation as Homo Sapiens Sapiens (Human Beings) and those genes were passed to people looked similar to one another. This is why we look the way we do today. But animals like dogs and cats have so much more genetic mutations than we do it is crazy. This is why their hair and eye color are so different from 1 another but they are still just the same dogs and cats. And so are We !

      No such thing as different hunan races. We're all the same race, the human race. Everything started in africa/middle east. The reason why people bave different skin tones is because people have moved away and branched out to different areas over time. People that have ancestry of those that come from the equator, or close to it have darker skin. If your ancestry is from colder countries where there is not much sun you don't need to have dark skin. I've also heard that having the curly hair plays a role in sub protection but not sure. But pleas everyone get this idea out of your mind that we're all "different" or that our blood is different whatever you may think.

    Thank you this is accurate as a actual medical student thank you for this accurate depiction it seems people only believe skin melanin is brown when it's black , yellow and red. The amount of these pigments is relatively the same the difference is the shape when we are talking about variations of skin shades.

    • @SemajSemaj

      Those pigments are all various shades of the color brown actually. Melanin is actually various shade pigments of the darkest of dark brown (even if looks black to our eyes) to the lightest pigments of Brown. Very similar to wood. Even what we call "Red" hair from genetic mutations is a varied pigment shade of the color Brown. I look at Melanin under electron microscopy on a pretty daily basis under the epidermal layers of the skin. It is insanely fascinating. All varied shades of vast varied percentages of Pheomelanin and Eumelanin dots give us our varied different skin complexions and hair colors, we see the same under microscopy for Dog and Cat hairs also.

      Summary: There is a pigment called melanin. It is found in humans, and also many other animals (and even fruits/veggies). It is related, in plants, to the pigment chlorophyll. There are three main types of melanin: eumelanin, pheomelanin, and neuromelanin. Eumelanin is found in the skin. It is initially produced in the epidermis' bottom layer aka "basal layer" scientific name: stratum basale, but later transports to the top layer of the epidermis (that layer is called the cornified layer (stratum corneum) The human (and animal) top layer of skin, aka epidermis, is an example of epithelium. Our palms and souls of feet have the largest layer of cornified layer (stratum corneum). Interestingly, even though darker humans usually have darker skin, on the palms of their hands and souls of their feet, the tone is very close to that of light skinned humans. Racism is a misnomer since we are all the same race homo sapien sapien. I hope this info helps you and other individuals seeking knowledge, wisdom and insights.
