Any cap here with a good explanation?
When old cells are damaged they are at risk of turning into cancer. Many of them rather die (apoptosis) or turn senescent (in that case they can’t produce melanin to make color of hair).
Oh yeah, that’s a good explanation
Does this have any implication for people that have grey hair early on vs people that only get it later in life?
While it’s not a good trade you’d rather have gray hair if it meant you didn’t get melanoma
Gray hair can look lovely. I accept
One can’t say the same for skin cancer.
