What are some ethnic differences between people in Iran and Iraq?

Iraq is primarily Arab with some minorities like Kurds and Yazidi in the north. Iran is a multi-ethnic country made up primarily of Persians, but also Dari, Pashto, and Balochs in the East and Kurds, Azeri, Circassians, and Arabs in the West. Persians consider themselves to be Caucasians, not Arabs.

Is Yemen where the majority of Arabs come from?

All Arabs are originally from Yemen and it's known for all Arabs that "Arab's origin is Yemen" but if you mean that most Arab people are Yemenis! no they're not. The previous answer is incorrect. In Pre-Islamic Times, when the Arabs were only found in the Arabian Peninsula, Arabs were quite evenly distributed across what is now Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, and Yemen. (Understandably, they would be concentrated in cities and along the coast, but the percentage of Arabs in these areas was nearly identical). With the Rise of Islam, Arabs have expanded outward from the Arabian Peninsula and are now endemic in many other countries. So, no, most Arabs did not come from Yemen and today most Arabs certainly do not come from Yemen.
