How strong is a selective pressure skin cancer expected to exert on reproductive success?

Selective pressure from skin cancer can significantly impact reproductive success, particularly in populations with high UV exposure. Individuals with increased susceptibility to skin cancer may have reduced lifespan and reproductive opportunities, potentially leading to lower overall fitness. However, this pressure may be mitigated by behavioral adaptations, such as seeking shade or using sunscreen, which can reduce UV exposure and associated cancer risk. Ultimately, the strength of this selective pressure varies based on environmental factors and genetic predispositions in different populations.
