Detailed explanation-1: -If you are a man with average height, you can expect your son to be a few inches (centimeters) taller than you. This is because the regression line and the SD line both coincide at the average heights. For instance, a father with an average height of 67.7 inches (172cm) will have a 68.7-inch-tall (175cm-tall) son.
Detailed explanation-2: -As a general rule of thumb, your height can be predicted based on how tall your parents are. If they are tall or short, then your own height is said to end up somewhere based on the average heights between your two parents. Genes aren’t the sole predictor of a person’s height.
Detailed explanation-3: -Yes, there is a possibility of a daughter being taller than her father. It isn’t common, though. Our genetics that determine growth and our height isn’t always just the dad’s genes and mom’s genes combined to make the kids average gene.
