Posted in wrong area.. Blah, and typos.
Blacks have arms which are longer, relative to body height, than those of Whites. This feature, together with their much thicker cranial bones, gives Black athletes an advantage over Whites in boxing. The skeletal and muscular peculiarities of Blacks' lower limbs have given them considerable success as sprinters, but have left them relatively undistinguished as distance runners.
The Black skull has thicker cranial bones than that of the White, is prognathous; i.e., the lower face projects forward. In consequence, the Black jaw is substantially longer, relative to its width, than the White jaw. A feature of the Black lower jaw is its retention of a vestige of the "simian shelf," a bony region immediately behind the incisors. The simian shelf is a distinguishing characteristic of apes, and it is absent in Whites. Blacks also have larger teeth than Whites.
Sigh, I don't like using the term Black because it doesn't reflect the diversity of evolution in Africa and its a misleading term due to its emphasis on skin color, but using latin terms is something which is taboo.
As you can see, this gentle lady is not 'Black' in a racial sense even if her skin was pitch black, although she does indeed have extraordinary legs. Oh, and Black babies can raise their head at birth while White and Asian babies cannot.
Other interesting facts: Black babies start out far more developed than White and Asian babies, but they reach equality at two years of age (if memory serves correctly) and after that the White and Asian surpass. Also, Blacks generally gain sexual maturity at an earlier age. That's all I can remember.
