what was the body make up like in africa
Does it specify what part of Africa in the question? I have no knowledge of this subject, but assume it would be much different in South Africa than it would in Egypt.

Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. No doubt you are not interested in makeup tips for African and/or African Americans. Here are some interesting things about the body paint:

It seems like there might be a misunderstanding here. The question you asked, "what was the body make up like in Africa," implies that you are asking about the physical attributes of people in Africa. However, the response you received seems to be about body paint and art in African cultures.
If you are interested in the physical characteristics of people in Africa, it is important to note that Africa is a continent with diverse ethnic groups, cultures, and physical traits. Therefore, it is not accurate to generalize the body makeup of all Africans. The physical characteristics can vary greatly depending on the specific ethnic group and region within Africa.
To learn more about the physical diversity of African people, it would be helpful to specify which part of Africa or which ethnic group you are asking about. This can help in finding more specific and accurate information about the body makeup of that particular group.
