Which description fits benign growths or moles?

  1. Irregular in shape and border

  2. Cancerous growths

  3. Regular shape, skin colored or brown, can be flat or raised, and are symmetrical

  4. Small pearly, domed shaped nodules

The correct answer is: Regular shape, skin colored or brown, can be flat or raised, and are symmetrical

Moles are typically benign growths on the skin, meaning they are not harmful. Option A, irregular in shape and border, would be indicative of a potentially cancerous growth or lesion. Option B, cancerous growths, is incorrect because moles are generally not cancerous. Option D, small pearly, domed shaped nodules, is more characteristic of a sebaceous cyst, which is also a benign skin growth, but not the same as a mole. Option C, regular shape, skin colored or brown, can be flat or raised, and are symmetrical, is the most accurate description of a mole.
