The Bible makes it clear that we are all 'of one blood' and, as outlined in Genesis. According to Genesis 9:19 all the people on the earth are thus descended from Noah and his three sons and their wives.

Interestingly modern genetics confirms the genetic similarity of what we regard today as 'races' of people on the earth. Race as we know it today is a concept foreign to the Bible. It talks about nations rather than races of people.

The superficial external differences of facial features and skin color are not explained in the Bible since all people on the earth are regarded as fundamentally one.

If you want biblical explanations, the bible does have one for the existence of different languages, which is the story of the Tower of Babel. As for different races, presumably different children of Adam and Eve gave rise to different races (some theologians prefer to trace back the different races to the different children of Noah). But bear in mind that the bible is a form of mythology, which should not be taken literally.
