Answer A more politically correct term to use would be African (African-American only refers to a person of African descent who was born and raised in the United States). And, the most common gene is the one that causes cycle cell anemia.



The most "common gene"? There would be numerous answers. Humans have 20-30,000 genes. Most are basically the same for all people. Plus, they wouldn't be African-Americans if they lived in Germany, France, etc...

It is not appropriate or accurate to refer to a single gene as being specific to a particular racial group. Race is a social construct and genetic diversity exists within all populations. There is no single gene that defines a racial group.
