what are the questions?

racial profiling is the act of targeting a racial minority for a criminal investigation only based on the individual's skin color, and therefore the association of that person to a race or ethnic group.

criminal profiling on the other hand, is the practice hold by police enforcement members, in which they stop for questioning an individual based on his/her appearance and the similarity between them and a suspect the police is looking for. in this case, race can be used for criminal profiling, but eyes color, hair color, height, weight, type of clothes wearing, etc, are also taking in consideration.

the verbal in this sentence is an infinitive. when you want to know the reason of an action, you simply ask the question "why? ". once you know the reason you can answer with "because".

many times we don´t use the word "because" but we can use another expression and that is an "infinitive of purpose". example:

-why did your brother bring a book?

-he brought a book to study.

in the answer above you can see an example of an infinitive sentence, just like in the example of your text. "he couldn´t run fast enough to beat his older sister". so, the answer is infinitive.
