I want to know the answer to the following question:
What does the word "races" mean as referenced in Darwin's book?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Here the term "races" is used as an alternative for "varieties" and does not carry the modern connotation of human races—the first use in the book refers to "the several races, for instance, of the cabbage" and proceeds to a discussion of "the hereditary varieties or races of our domestic animals and plants".". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
