Question

you and your friend hanna are excited about a spring break trip to the beach. on the first morning at the beach you apply sunblock, hanna does not bother doing the same thing. when you ask about her decision, she tells you that she never puts on sunblock when coming to the beach because she feels it is a waste of time. besides, she wants to get a base tan before summer. what advice should you give hanna about her decision? check all that apply. \you are increasing your risk for skin cancer.\ \at least having a base tan will prevent you from further skin damage.\ \a terrible sunburn can form on your body.\ \your skin will age a lot faster than normal.\ \it is okay if you do not wear sunblock now, but you should put some on this afternoon.\

Explanation:

• Not using sunblock increases the risk of skin cancer due to UV radiation exposure.
• Sunburn is a common result of not using sunblock.
• Premature skin aging (photoaging) occurs from unprotected sun exposure.
• A "base tan" does not prevent further skin damage; it is still a form of skin injury.
• Sunblock should be applied regularly throughout the day when exposed to the sun, not just in the afternoon.

Answer:

• "You are increasing your risk for skin cancer."
• "A terrible sunburn can form on your body."
• "Your skin will age a lot faster than normal."
