Continued friction of the skin is likely to cause a/an:

naevus
keloid
keratoma
albinism

The correct answer is: keratoma

Friction of the skin can cause a variety of skin conditions. In this particular instance, the most likely result is a keratoma. A keratoma is a thickened area of skin that typically forms in response to constant pressure or irritation. This makes it the best fit for the given question. In contrast, a naevus, keloid, or albinism are not directly caused by friction and would be incorrect answers. A naevus is a mole or birthmark, keloid is a raised scar, and albinism is a lack of pigment in the skin, hair, and eyes. While all of these may be affected by friction, they are not caused by it and would be less appropriate responses to the question.
