concept of human behaviours or characteristics quite differently. Biological explanations would suggest that it is genes‚ instincts‚ or evolutionary advantages that determine human behaviour. These types of explanations suggest human traits are predetermined and are difficult to change.

many years biological anthropologists have been trying to identify race through genetics but race is not determined biologically. The closest aspect to a biological feature in grouping people is cline; geography making people of the same area in the world similar. Human variation‚ however‚ is classification of skin color‚ eye color; characteristics that are genetic and unchanging genes. Genetic traits have nothing to do with race; it influences the idea of it. Mutations cause variation. An example
