Will children inherit their height from their father or grandfather?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

A child's height is inherited 35% from each parent, and the remaining 30% comes from postnatal nutrition. If the parents are short, it doesn't necessarily mean the child will be short. If either side of the family has a tall individual, there is a possibility that the child could inherit this trait. Additionally, the child's nutrition is very crucial.
