The document discusses why human skin colors vary. It states that people in northern Europe have the whitest skin, western Africans have the darkest skin, and those in Southeast Asia have yellowish-brown skin. However, most humans have intermediate shades. The document explains that differences in skin color are caused by chemical processes in the body. In the skin, there is a colorless substance called chromogen that develops color when acted on by certain enzymes. If someone lacks this substance or their enzymes do not work properly, they will be albino and lack any pigment, which can occur in people anywhere in the world.

COLORS ? People with the whitest skin colors can be found in the north part of European continent. Those people are called the Nordic. People with the blackest skin colors can be found in the west part of Africa. People of South East Asia have yellowish brown skin color. However, most of human being are not white, black, or yellow. They represent hundreds of shadow colors. Starting from those who have bright skin colors to those who have dark brown or blackish skin colors. What causes all the differences in Human skin colors ? The explanation is on the series of chemical processes, which take place in human body and their skin. In the skin layer there is a basic color substance which is called chromogen. The substance basically is colorless. However, if a certain ferment or enzyme affects the basic color substance, a certain skin color will be formed. However, if a man doesnt have the basic color substance or his/her enzyme doesnt work properly to the substance, he/she will become an albino. It is because he/she doesnt have any pigment. This can
happen to anyone on the earth surface. In Africa, as an
example, there is an albino who is whiter than a whiteskinned European man.
