I can think of several- one is the body muscle composition differences between blacks and whites. Skin thickness differences between blacks and whites (and the reason white boxers don't do as well- if I remember correctly). I believe there are medical reasons to study the differences between the races- at the moment most drugs are tested primarily on white men. As you know women react differently to medications and there may be variances for race. Blood factors are another difference between the races- again a medical thing. These are not spectacular differences (the ones I speak of) and have nothing to do with intelligence, or which race is "better". And of course like the male female difference, race is a sliding scale. Most of us are mixed to a great extent.
