Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Are height and weight correlated?
Height and weight are somewhat correlated, but many factors like genetics, nutrition, and lifestyle play a role. Taller people may weigh more on average, but body composition varies widely.
Can height come from grandparents?
Yes, height is influenced by genetics, and traits can be inherited from grandparents as well as parents. Family history is a strong predictor of adult height.
Does height correlate with IQ?
Scientific studies show only a very weak correlation between height and IQ. Height is not a reliable indicator of intelligence.
Does height correlate with strength?
Height alone does not determine strength. While taller individuals may have longer limbs, strength depends more on muscle mass, training, and genetics.

Predicting adult height can be done using growth charts and parental heights, but it is not exact. Genetics, nutrition, and health all influence final height.
