what is the difference between race and ethnicity?

Answer 1

Race has to do with the anthropological differences among humans (Bone structure, features, etc.) Humans are generally categorized as Caucasoid, Mongoloid or *******. By the way, skin color has very little to do with race.
Ethnicity has more to do with language, culture, nationality, etc.

Answer 2

Ethnicity is a social construction that indicates identification with a particular group which is often descended from common ancestors. Members of the group share common cultural traits (such as language, religion, and dress) and are an identifiable minority within the larger nation-state. In Latin America, it often refers to Indians and Africans, although perhaps everyone has some type of ethnic identity.
A race is defined as a group of individuals sharing common genetic attributes which determine that group's physical appearance and, more controversially, their cognitive abilities.

Answer 3

Race is natural while ethnicity is man made.

Answer 4

Race is what distinguishes you based on your heritage like where your parents are from and so forth.

Ethnicity is what distinguishes you based on your heritage and cultural beleifs, like you can be indian, but you can have a different religion or beliefs as compared to others.
