Ethnicity is a social classification based on a variety of factors, such as nationality, religion, and language as well as biological ancestral heritage (race), which are shared by a group of people with a common geographic origin. An ethnic group is a group of people who have identified themselves as such, based on a variety of factors that may or may not include ancestral heritage or biological characteristics such as skin color. Ethnicity fosters common bonds that affect communication patterns. Race is based on the genetically transmitted physical characteristics of a group of people who are also classified together because of a common history, nationality, or geographical location. Skin color and other physical characteristics affect our responses and influence the way people of different races interact. A person's racial classification is typically based on such visible physiological attributes as phenotypes, which include skin color and other physical features including body type, hair color and texture, and facial attributes.
