Answer 1

The example of scientific racism used during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries is **the identification of a superior ethnic group in Africa because they have more European features**. This reflects the belief that certain physical traits deemed "European" were superior, which was a common justification in the context of colonialism and racial hierarchies during that time.
