Abstract

This article presents the height,weight,and the index of morphology of Han nationality adolescents from 7 to 17 years old.The height and weight of the average annual values were 4.84 cm and 3.39 kg for male adolescents and were 3.70cm and 2.85kg for females.The height and weight of the 13-14year-old male adolescents are to reach an annual value of 8.04cm and 6.46kg and the height and weitght the 12-13years old females are to reach an annual value of 5.73cm and 4.43kg, which shows female adolescents are at this stage in the peak period of physical growth.Besides,female and male have two crossed phenomena of their height and weight indicators based on the comparison between male and female in the same age group.The first crossing is at 9 years old and the second is at 13-14 years old,which illustrated that the physical growth of female adolescents is earlier than that of male.This article analyzed the features of physical growth,the growth differences based on the adolescents in different age group and based on the same age group with different sex,and compares with the related articles.In general,there are no significant sexual differences in 2 measurements which increase with ages.
