Where is melanin produced?

  1. In the dermis

  2. In the hypodermis

  3. In the melanocytes of the basal layer

  4. In the hair follicles

The correct answer is: In the melanocytes of the basal layer

Melanin is a pigment that gives skin, hair, and eyes their color. It is produced by special cells called melanocytes, which are located in the basal layer of the epidermis. These cells transfer melanin to other skin cells to protect them from the damaging effects of UV radiation. The correct answer is C because melanin is produced in the melanocytes of the basal layer. Options A and B are incorrect because the dermis and hypodermis are not responsible for melanin production. Option D is also incorrect because while melanin may be present in the hair follicles, it is not the primary site of melanin production.
