What is the most intelligent human race in the world?

All humans have the potential for intelligence regardless of race. Intelligence is a complex trait influenced by a variety of factors such as genetics, environment, education, and opportunities for growth and learning. It is not accurate or fair to rank intelligence based on race.


List of the nine human races?

DUMB DUMB DUMB ---->Biologically and anthropologically speaking, there is only one, the human race. Look up race and ethnic group. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is not about social politics, we don't have to be all the same, i.e. "there is only one, the human race", to treat people with respect. We are allowed to acknowledge genealogically divergent family groups that become genetically-phenotypically and culturally distinct. This phenomenon is understood by laymen as race and ethnicity. Saying there is one race, the human race, defeats the purpose of recognizing racial groups which is to categorize our differences. Embrace the diversity.


Number of human races?

Just one - the race from rapid growth after we're born, to a steady decline in our later years, where the last one standing, loses. We are all one race genetically - differing less than one tenth of one percent from orang-utangs or oranges, yet we are as diverse as sand grains on a beach (actually, most coral beaches are made from the anal excretions of parrotfish, and comprise crunched-up coral with the nourishment extracted...), and that's before we get into the differences between genders. From a male point of view, each female is so different from us as to be another species, which leaves around half the world's population as unique examples of another race. So if women think the same about us, we become one race, with as many different sub species as there are people on this planet.


Is it true that a mulatto is a person of Africans and Europeans ancestry?

Yes, historically, the term "mulatto" referred to a person of mixed African and European ancestry. However, this term is now considered outdated and potentially offensive, so it is better to use more respectful and accurate terminology such as biracial or mixed-race.


Does race have anything to do with one's bone structure?

From an anthropological viewpoint there exists only one human/humanoid race currently habitating earth, homo sapiens sapiens, "the human race" (since the neanderthals -homo sapiens neanderthalis - died out anyway). Race has everything to do with bone structure. Often bone structure is key in distinquishing the race, species, etc. of various hominid remains. Often the term race is mistakenly used in place of ethnicity. Whether bone structure is determined by ones ethnicity is an entirely different question. Yes ethnic groups do generally share many superficial/physical characteristics (thats what makes them "groupable") such as similar bone structure, skin tone....
