Because it penetrates the skin and can cause mutations.
What is a physical or chemical agent that changes the nucleotide sequence of DNA?
UVA light is a type of ultraviolet (UV) radiation with longer wavelengths than UVB and UVC light. It makes up the majority of the UV radiation that reaches the Earth's surface and can penetrate deeper into the skin, potentially causing skin aging and increasing the risk of skin cancer. UV protective measures, such as sunscreen and clothing, are important when exposed to UVA light.
They don't really have a set design that make them set out from regular lightbulbs. Sometimes it will say on the lightbulb itself. The UVA bulbs I are smaller, longer, and have a narrow end that mushrooms out. More like a tes-tube then a typical lightbulb. It also has a frosted coloring around the sides to aim the rays of light directly down. My UVB bulbs are large and coiled.
a change in the mRNA makes a mutation of the DNA
No, ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation is not the lowest on the electromagnetic spectrum. It falls between ultraviolet B (UVB) and visible light in terms of wavelength and energy. UVA radiation is longer in wavelength compared to UVB, but shorter than visible light.
Yes, UV light can be a mutagen as it can cause changes in the DNA sequence by inducing mutations. Excessive exposure to UV light can lead to the formation of thymine dimers in DNA, which can result in mutations if not repaired.
No, they are not the same. A black light bulb produces UVA light.
no,You need both uva and uvb light
No. Diabetes is a condition, not a substance, and therefore cannot be a "mutagen".

Environmental Mutagen Society was created in 1969.

Mutagen turns people into what animal it most recently been in contact with.
Both UVA and UVB light is used for phototherapy of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma; UVA is usually administered once a week, and UVB can be weekly as well, or sometimes daily.
