Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between heritage and race?
Heritage refers to cultural factors like nationality, language, and traditions. Race Percentage, on the other hand, is primarily based on physical characteristics. Our calculator helps you explore both concepts of identity.
How accurate is the race percentage calculator?
The accuracy depends on the information you input. It provides a good estimate based on parents' details but doesn't account for genetic variations. For more precise results, consider DNA testing.
Can I calculate my baby's race?
Yes! Input your and your partner's race breakdowns as the "mother" and "father" to estimate your baby's race blend. This is especially handy for mixed-race couples.
What if I don't know my full racial background?
Input what you know, and use broader categories if necessary (e.g., "European"). For unknown portions, you can add an "Unknown" category. Consider researching your family history or using DNA testing services for more details.
