Crap ... there is very little differences amongst different races raised and given the same upbringing and bought up in the same environment as other races.
As for immune system, not sure what you think that has to do with it. My brother in law is off viking stock and his first year here in Oz he spent almost every second week in bed. Nothing to do with the fact that he is Norweign. A lot to do with the fact that growing up he was never exposed to the same bugs and viruses we have here. That has ZERO to do with genetics and EVERYTHING to do with environment.
If you believe that, then you probably believe that there is very little differences among men and women. Maybe we can do away with gendered sports and have men and women compete together.
Having watched Olympic Games in 2021 (and I will again this year), it is very noticeable the number of people of one particular race dominating one sport, and another racial background dominating others. Have you noticed that since 1984 (and up until 2016) the 100 metres final has been an African affair? Stronger fast-twitch leg muscles. The fastest white guy in the world was Christophe LeMaitre with a time of 9.92 in the 100 metres. Australia's fastest white guy is Rohan Browning, with his personal best of 10.01 seconds in the 100 metres.
Have a look at swimming. Largely dominated by white people. Stronger upper body strength. Asians are good in gymnastics. Great flexibility.
Unfortunately, Asians are less likely to be tolerant of alcohol. "People of East Asian descent are more likely to have the inherited genetic mutation that causes alcohol intolerance, so they develop the condition at higher rates".
Or you could look at things like body odour. "
Between 80 and 95% of East Asians have a dysfunction of the ABCCII gene, which is linked to smelly pits, a number of studies say. And this means their bodies don’t release the same acidic odor smell the rest of the population does when exposed to hot temperatures and perspiration".
You could probably look at many factors that affect different racial backgrounds that are not derived from social factors.
