Do organ texture, colour, shape size etc. differ depending on race? If someone was only to look at a scan or an organ in isolation, would they be able to determine the race of that person?

No. The organs would be the same across races and/or ethnicities. A forensic anthropologist might be able to examine a deceased person’s facial bones and use some measurements to make generalised assumptions about a person’s ethnicity. That’s still a long shot and the best that someone who is highly trained could do is state what a person’s origins *might* have been. That’s at a level only directly beneath the soft tissues of the face.
Pretty sure the only organ that would be different…. would be the skin. (Yes, skin is an organ)
Pelvic bones are tilted differently between Caucasians and African Americans, my understanding is that is how those forensic determinations are made.
If somebody has Sickle cell disease he/she very probably come from West Africa and has very dark skin. I’m not sure if this answer your question, but blood is an internal organ.

Essentially, the deeper you go biologically, the clearer it becomes that ‘race’ and ‘ethnicity’ are human constructs, with only the loosest basis in human physiology.
organs no, there is a bit of a difference in bone structur, not a lot but enough to now if someone is from africa or asia, but the deeper you go the less differences you see
🤔 isn’t sickle cell anemia only found in one ethnicity? Does blood even count as an organ?
