Human stature (height) is affected by: 1) Environmental factors: Modernization is associated with increased height. People in colder climates are larger than those in warmer climates. 2) genetic factors: The 'large' allele is more common in northern European populations and the 'short' allele is in southern European populations. Thousands of genes have subtle effects on height

How do you know how tall you are?

Size estimates are obtained from long bone measurements. That is, the humerus, femur, and tibia. If these bones are not available, the ulna, radius, and fibula can also provide an appropriate range for a person's expected height.

What is height and what is a human's natural height?

  • Human height or stature is the distance from the soles of the feet to the top of the head on an upright human body. Measured in centimeters when using the metric system, and feet and inches when using normal US or imperial units.
  • Only in scattered independent groups of Paleolithic hunter-gatherers, and in very recent history, only in a minority of democratic modern societies, has the long-standing historical figure of human height, about 165–170 cm for men increased well above average. Less than 160 cm for women.
