Explain why sun lamps and tanning beds are unsafe
What will be an ideal response?
Sun lamps and tanning parlors provide mainly ultraviolet A (UVA) rays. Once thought to be safe, they are now known to be damaging and have been linked to melanoma. As little as 15 to 30 minutes of exposure to UVA rays can be as dangerous as a day spent in the sun. Similar to regular exposure to sunlight, short-term exposure to recreational tanning at a salon causes DNA alterations that can lead to skin cancer.
