Most everyone in my family is tall except me. Height is genetic.
How do genetics help determine height?
A genetic profile in men called Y haplotype I-M170 correlates with their height.
Interesting. What else do you know about genetics?
In areas of poverty, malnutrition can result in delayed growth and reduction in adult height.
So genetics as well as environment play a role in development?
Yes, correct. The development of human height serves as in indicator of two welfare components, nutritional quality and health.
