What factors influence height?

Height and weight indicators not only reflect the growth and development of children and adolescents, but also coincide with the development of various tissues and organs of the body. Height refers to the length and proportion of each longitudinal part of the human body. It originates from the longitudinal growth of the human body and is greatly affected by genetic factors. When men are 20 to 24 years old and women are 19 to 23 years old, the long bones of the limbs and vertebrae have completed ossification, and the height stops growing.

There are many factors that affect height, such as heredity, nutrition, sports, environment, living habits, race, endocrine, sexual maturity (menarche age at 18 years old is on average 5 cm higher than that at 11 years old), distance Inbreeding, medical advances, and more.
