Answer 1

Look on page 3 of the article by clicking the correct page at the bottom of the first page. In the section about skin cancer, it says:
"A far more dangerous cancer is melanoma, a cancer that develops from melanocytes. When diagnosed early, it can often be surgically cured, but this form of cancer may spread rapidly, or metastasize, to the internal organs and can be fatal within months of diagnosis."
So the answer is cancer of the melanocytes which is melanoma.

Answer 2

Melanoma is dangerous, because it spreads rapidly. It is important to diagnose it early and have it surgically remove.
