It is actually determined a little bit by both. Younger people have a little bit faster metabolism, and may still be developing, so they need more calories. Older people need less calories to maintain their weight. Weight also contributes just a little bit, because your muscle and fat cells need energy.
Activity level is another important factor to determine calorie requirement. Two people with the same age, height, and weight might need two different amounts of calories. Person one walks all over town and exercises three times a week. Person two drives to work, sits at a desk, drives home, and sits on a couch. Person one will need more calories because they are burning more calories.
