regular borders

uniform coloration

a size smaller than 6 mm

asymmetry

Explanation:

To determine a sign of melanoma, we use the ABCDE rule (Asymmetry, Border irregularity, Color variation, Diameter >6mm, Evolution). Asymmetry (where one half of the mole doesn't match the other) is a key sign. Regular borders, uniform coloration, and size <6mm are not typical signs of melanoma.

Answer:

D. asymmetry
