(A) People born with albinism develop other biological protections against melanoma and other sun-related health issues.
(B) Humans with a high production of melanin can easily ignore health issues related to exposure to the sun.
(C) When a non-albino person gets sunburn, the amount of melanin produced by that person decreases.
