Explain the process of pigmentation​

Answer 1

Through a process called melanogenesis, melanocytes produce melanin, which is a pigment found in the skin, eyes, hair, nasal cavity, and inner ear. This melanogenesis leads to a long-lasting pigmentation, which is in contrast to the pigmentation that originates from oxidation of already-existing melanin.

UV light triggers special cells called melanocytes to produce the pigment melanin. The melanin is carried by melanosomes to skin cells. Differences in skin color are due to the color of the melanin, the amount of it, and how it ends up being distributed in the skin.
