Individuals of Caucasian descent typically have light skin, straight or wavy hair, and a variety of eye colors. They may also have a prominent nose bridge and narrow facial features. Additionally, Caucasians are more likely to develop conditions such as skin cancer due to their lighter skin pigmentation.

What are Caucasians?

"Caucasian" is a scientific name for white people. The traditional terms for the different races divided them into three groups: Caucasians (whites), Negroids (blacks) and Mongoloids (Asians). Some would argue that three main categories is not sufficient to classify the racial diversity of humanity. A newer model, developed by a man named Carleton S. Coon, split humans into five races: Caucasoid, Congoid, Capoid, Mongoloid, and Australoid. See the Related Link below for the Wikipedia entry.
