Indicators of Physical Development
Abstract
Indicators of physical development A newborn baby is distinguished by relatively short limbs, body and head size. The length of his head is 1/4 of the length of the body, and in a two-year-old child - 1/5, in a six-year-old - 1/6, in a twelve-year-old - 1/7, and in an adult - 1/8. As the age increases, the growth of the head slows down, and the growth of the limbs increases[1-3].
