Without changing the size of the shot glass, however, the amount of alcohol in a shot can go as high as 95%, or 2.85 standard drinks. This means, for instance, that if you have one shot of 190-proof Everclear, you have consumed 2.85 times as much alcohol as you would if you had one shot of 72-proof whisky.
Pigments that contribute to skin color are called carotene, a yellowish hemoglobin, in blood vessels (pink-red), and melanin (black, brown, red). Darker skins are dominated by melanin, which is produced from the amino acid tyrosine, by pigment cells (melanocytes) in the skin.igments that contribute to skin color are called carotene, a yellowish hemoglobin, in blood vessels (pink-red), and melanin (black, brown, red).

There are three types of melanin, the first two of which have been identified in fossils: Eumelanin is the best-known form of melanin, providing primarily black colours. Eumelanin is found in the hair and skin of humans, and it colours the hair grey, black, yellow, and brown. Eumelanin exists in two forms, black eumelanin and brown eumelanin. Black melanin produces black colours when it is present in large quantities, and grey colours when it is rarer.
