What is average height for eight year old?

The AVERAGE 8 year old measures 4' 1". Don't forget that these measurements are AVERAGE. Half of children will be taller than this and half will be shorter. Children usually take after their parents so tall parents will have tall children, small parents will have small children. Even more importantly is how tall the child is in comparison with how tall it was when younger. Most children who are 3'3" at 4 will be about 4'1" at 8. If they are significantly shorter or taller than the line they were on then they may have a problem.


Your Dad Is 5 foot 7 inches and your Mom Is 5 foot 1 inches How Tall Will you be?

What is In a population a shift in the average population phenotype toward the mean and away from the physical extremes This process lowers phenotypic variety the population is more homogeneous?

Does your parents height determine yours?

Genes have a lot to do with your way of thinking; your actions in general and your physical aspects such as if you will be short or tall. Yes, sometimes the children of short one or both short parents or tall parents can take after their parents, but there is also what they call a 'throwback' which means you could have, for example two short parents and you could be quite tall like another relative in the family.


How tall will a kid be if their parents are 5'11 and 6'6?

There is no way of knowing. Tall parents tend to have tall children. It depends on your parents and grandparents gene's (and to a leser extent diet, exercise and sleeping habits, whether you smoke or not etc) and chance, so there is no way of knowing, but in all likelyhood the kid will be tall. (a good indicator is looking at the size of the kid's femur (thigh bone).

It is possible but unlikely. Dalton discovered that tall parents have taller children and shorter parents have shorter children but the children's heights regress towards the general mean. This is where the term regression comes from.

How tall will you be if you are now 15 and 5'5 and your mom is 4'7 and dad is 6'2?

All that can be said is that, unless you have a major accident, you will be at least 5'5". The whole theory of regression was developed because Dalton observed that tall parents tended to have tall children and short parent tended to have short children but that the children's heights REGRESSED towards the overall population mean. So your parents' height is only a part of the determinant. Your gender, health, your grandparents' heights will all play a part.
