Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Melanocytes produce melanin, a pigment that provides skin with its color. When the melanocytes clump together, they continue producing melanin, resulting in a higher concentration of melanin in that area. This concentration of melanin is what gives a mole its darker color.
Detailed explanation-2: -Freckles and moles are two different types of skin growths. Freckles occur as a result of sun exposure or genetics, whereas moles appear after skin cells develop into a cluster instead of spreading out into the skin.
