  Text A

  Population groups can be distinguished from one another biologically, but some of the old "racial traits" do not stand up to scientific testing. Perhaps the most notorious of these is skin color. There are too many non-biological factors that may account for the color of a person's skin to make it standard of much use in distinguishing between populations. Other traits, like hair type, physical measurement, the form of the eyes, nose, etc. do have more validity as such standards. But here, too, external factors may modify basic biological tendencies. Scientists need something more precise upon which to base their conclusions. One answer to this need can be found in genetics. Anyone's physical appearance is, after all, partly the result of genetic determination. What we see is called a phenotype, and the genetic constitution that lies behind it is called a genotype. Genetic biologist seek to know the genotypes associated with racial differences, because the genes are the actual location of whatever differences we think we can see in phenotypes.
