Could growth hormones theoretically be administered to any infant of normal height to make them taller than average? Why or why not?
In: Biology
It’s not advantageous to be taller than average in a health sense. You’re more susceptible to arthritis, cancer, heart disease, etc, because your body is bigger and heavier, similar to the effects of being overweight. People just don’t talk about it because you can’t really control height and it’s traditionally seen as better to be taller.
