Interestingly heritability of height usually comes in at abt ~90% weight comes in at ~70-80. It’s not as environmentally determined as we get told.

Height: Genes: my family is tall Environment: I always had to reach things on the taller shelves so it stretched me out (this is joke)

I've heard (but not verified) eldest children are usually shorter than their younger siblings as another environmental factor

finally something to tell people when they ask "how did you get so tall?". which is a pretty weird question to begin with, now that I think about it!

Recently I’ve been hearing a lot about you can directly effect expression of genes. Is this true and if so how?

what about epigenetics? the way i understand epigenetics it explains how an organism can be so suited to an environment.

Hold on it can only be nature or nurture. Haha. Even when I was young I thought that was a silly argument. Why is it not both. Same principle here.
