  1. 1- you already asked this question

    2-  the correct answer is that no one can predict how tall anyone is going to be.  


  2. Height is 90 percent inherited, but poor nutrition and stress can stunt growth.  If a boy's mother is short, however, she will probably have a short son. Conversely, if a girl's dad is tall, she will probably be tall as well. Apparently, the opposite-sexed parent most determines a child's height, although his or her stature will probably be a combined of the two parents.  Earlier maturing boys and girls are closer to their adult height than late maturing boys and girls of the same age.

    That said--here are two mathematical formulas to arrive at an educated guess of how tall you may be when you reach your full height:

    1)  In both sexes, double the height that you were when you were two-years-old.

    or

    2)  For boys: take your father's height and add five inches, then add to this your mother's height.  Finally, take this sum and divide it by two.

    Example:  dad is 5'11" and mom is 5"6.  5.11 + 5 = 6.4 + 5.6 = 12.0/2 = 6.0.  

    For girls: Take dad's height minus five inches, plus mom's height; take this sum and divide by two.  

    Example: dad is 5'10 and mom is 5'4:  5.10 - 5 = 5.5 +5.4 = 10.9/2 = 5.4 1/2

    Note: This formula worked about right for me.  My dad was 5'11", and my mom was 5'8".  5'11" - 5 = 5.6 + 5.8 = 11.4/2 = 5.7.  I'm 5 foot 6 and 3/4 inches tall.

  3. I think he will grow more than 6"6.. Are  u talking about yourself??/

  4. Didn't you already ask this question?

    This would probably get a better response over in genetics since we study dead ancestors here, not genes

  5. Your going to have to wait and see.

  6. lol wut?
