this is like reading that 70% of physicists agree that water is liquid.
I don't get why this is so controversial
There is no problem recognizing subspecies in animals with LOWER genetic diversity compared to humans
Well you're an idiot. It's all about feelings. Nobody wants to be told their entire race is second fiddle, or worse, or the worst. Everyone wants to think all races are the same, because fee fees get hurt otherwise.
Just because you are recognizing subspecies, it doesn't mean you have to have a hierarchy among them
while water is indeed a liquid, ice is in fact an oxide mineral.
the 30 percent who deny the fact that Water is Liquid dont have the Authority to lock up Rasis-Liquid-Water Conspirators

Biologist here. You're going to have to face the facts, an anthropologist's opinion on this matter is more valid, "biologist" is just too broad a brush. Anthropologist is also quite broad, but anthropology is more or less literally the study of humans. I study viruses, viral genetics, and to a very limited extent human genetics, so I am not qualified to discuss the scientific basis of race, nor would I wager are the majority of the biologists polled.
I think you're only saying they're based because they agree with you, Anonymous, even though you are intentionally discarding the data you don't like. That is very bad science!
Are forensic anthropologists able to determine the race and sex of a person just by looking at skeletal remains? How?

We can tell almost for sure if a skeleton is male or female, however, this analysis can only be carried on adults as infants still don't have the development necessary for such differences to be noticed. The most important parts we use are pelvis and skull, there are significant differences between male and female on them, we must follow some kind of guide but being honest, I only use it when I am unsure due to some mix of markers. We NEVER say we are SURE about something, we say that the analysis INDICATE that, even if we have 100% sure of the fact. About race, I am used to work with only 3 types: negroid, mongoloid and caucasoid. These are the 3 types of skulls/faces that we can determine, it is absolutely impossible to say if someone came from Ireland or France, or from differents countries in Africa, and even if they are Brazilians (for instance, I am), but we can say that the bone's markers indicate that the person has a negroid/mongoloid/caucasoid ancestry. Some markers receive more "points" then others, and we surely can say that the ancestry is "indertemined".

Yes. The morphology of the skeletal remains point towards gender and also to race.... As for race. the skull is the most important set of bones to determine race. These are generalizations of course:
The width of the nasal opening, the general shape of the skull, the set of the eye sockets relative to the nasal bridge. From these and others features skulls can determine Cacasoid, Negroid and Asian as general groupings. With genetic studies even more factors can be filled in.

The bones most archaeologists/anthropologists look at to identify gender are the skull and pelvic bones, but this does not always provide exact evidence of gender.
As for “race”, well that’s a meaningless word to me. There is no conclusive way to identify race or ethnicity through skeletal remains. Sure, African skulls and Northern European skulls typically look different than one another, but not always. And then there are the cultural mutilations - skull and foot binding, neck lengthening, etc. that muddy the waters.
How do forensic scientists find the race of a dead person in case he/she was in a fire accident?

In a case where no soft tissue still exists, and those investigating are left with only the skeleton, it is still possible to identify the race. It is, however, extremely difficult. As people have stated below, different races have different bone structures. While there is not a clear cut classification, and the mixing of races has led to variation, there are certain things to look for. The three groupings are “caucasoid”, “negroid”, and “mongoloid”.
Caucasoids: They have high, rounded, or square skulls, with with straight faces and narrow, protruding noses. They have triangular eye sockets. They tend to have a curve on the femur.
Negroids: Have lower and narrower skulls, with wider and flatter noses and prominent teeth structure. Their eye sockets have a square shape. Negroids tend to have (proportionally) longer limbs compared to the other groups.
Mongoloids: Have broad, round skulls, with an arched profile. Their eye sockets are round, and they have wide faces. They have (proportionally) shorter limbs compared to the other groups.
The result of cultural mixing, however, results in characteristics becoming less distinct, and therefore makes identification harder.
how water holding up lol
Nigga please
Lmfao stop being disingenuous
Whats the genetic distance used for species differentation? Are there human populations that are distinct and as far if not farther from other human pops in terms of minimum genetic distance for species differentiation?

The definition of race is part of the biological taxonomy so it's only natural that BIOLOGISTS that have a broader view get the call on this, and not the narrow minded anthropologists that are actually closer to sociologists than scientists.
KYS fag you only proved that you are not actually a biologist.

Whatever you do, do not google "cultural anthropology".
