Hi, everyone. Let's take a look at this practice problem together. When a person consumes large amounts of keratin rich foods, the keratin can be absorbed into the body and accumulate in the fatty tissue under the skin. This can result in what skin color? The answer options are. A white b, brown, C black and D orange. So what is Katin Carin is a orange, yellow or red pigment? So, Koine is an orange, yellow or red pigment that can be found in fruits and vegetables and dark leafy greens. So, examples of katten rich foods would include things like carrots and sweet potatoes. Now, if a person consumes large amounts of these keratin rich foods, it accumulates in the fatty tissue and that produces a condition called keratin oder. And kotin derma is characterized by the skin color changing. Now, keratoderma is not permanent and the skin color can return to normal when a normal diet is resumed. Now, since Carotenes produce orange, yellow and red pigment, the skin color therefore would turn one of these colors and the only one listed as an answer option is orange. So the correct answer is option D orange. All right. Everyone. I hope you found this helpful and I'll see you soon for the next practice problem.
