For this short assignment. I'd like you to explore information from two different websites. First are some questions from the Palomar physical anthropology website (link shown on the homepage for this class). Keep in mind the difference between blood groups and blood types.

Human Blood, using both the Topics and the Additional Information sections to find your answers. How many different human blood groups are there? What are the four main components of blood? Look at the frequency of different blood types: which blood type for the ABO and Rh blood groups has the highest frequency in the US, and which has the lowest frequency? Highest frequency: Lowest frequency: Go to the link on AAA Statement on Race: Read this article carefully, and answer the following questions using information you read from the AAA Statement on Race: Explain why is race not considered a biologically meaningful way of describing human variation in a sort paragraph. Explain in your own words how the concept of race originated?
