37、esearch team, points out that the mutation is different in human and zebrafish genes.Humans acquired dark skin in Africa about 1.5 million years ago to protect bodies from ultra-violet rays of the sun (太阳光紫外线), which can cause skin cancer.But when modern humans leave Africa to live in northern latit

38、udes, they need more sunlight on their skin to produce vitamin D.
