The correct answer is:

the difference between mongoloid, negroid, and caucasoid people

Basically, race refers to people's bodies - someone adopted into another family is not changing their race.

Ethnicity refers to the culture a person was born into and raised into - a child adopted would adopt their parent's ethnicity, since it would identify with the culture of the parents.
