Subspecies - Are different human race a form of subspecie? (1 Viewer)

[1bpcsmem]

Out of curiosity, I was wondering whether you can regard differing human race as a form of subspecie. Does anyone know?

The human race is its own species, Homo sapiens, though you could certainly, though erroneously, refer to modern humans as Homo sapiens sapiens.

Yeah man. Well i wouldn't classify different races of homio sapiens as 'subspecies', but if you put it that way.. then yes. I mean think about it... compare an african to an asian. Different phenotype, but originated from same species - homosapiens. Compare the different colors and shapes of birds, and you'l see what i mean

Your first answer didn't even make sense. If your going to correct other peoples answers (which I'm fine with) i suggest looking at your own beforehand.
