How is race defined as per the information provided?

  1. Race

  2. Ethnicity

  3. Culture

  4. Transitional Visit

The correct answer is: Race

Race refers to the categorization of people based on physical characteristics such as skin color, facial features, and hair texture. It is a social construct that has been used historically to differentiate people based on perceived biological differences. While ethnicity and culture are related concepts, they are distinct from race. Ethnicity refers to shared cultural traits, such as language, religion, and traditions, among a group of people, while culture encompasses the beliefs, customs, and behaviors of a particular group or society. Transitional Visit is not related to the definition of race.
