### magnitude | dimension:

Height
* Some height depends on moisture
  - is affected by conditions
* affects architecture and other aspects of society as well
  - the amount of snow stored and area protected
* are rel- ative to the eye.
* can indirectly be a sign of status.
* causes large areas of the earth to blend into almost distinct patches of color.
* contains the height of the device in pixels.
* decreases with age.
* decreases, primarily caused by shortening of the trunk.
* defines the downwind distance protected when combined with density.
* dramatically affects one s relationships and employment.
* function of time.
* has effects.
* increases most before menstruation begins
  - rapidly but stops at an early age
* is also in large part governed by growth hormone - a hormone secreted by the pituitary
  - an independent risk factor for neuropathy in diabetic men
* is another consistent trait that often is related to maturity
  - example of a trait that is influenced by nature and nurture interaction
  - both genetically determined and dependent on nutrition
* is controlled by a number of genes
  - at least four genes
  - described as a dependent variable and time as an independent variable
* is determined by genetics or perhaps nutrition
  - many factors
  - encoded in color
  - genetically determined but is subject to environmental influence
  - given by the cumulative fraction of foliage, Z c
* is how much it goes above the baseline, depth how much it goes below
  - tall each unit is and width is how wide each unit is
  - just something that people look at, height is big sometimes
  - less in older children and adolescents but differences disappear in adulthood
  - measured at the withers
* is measured from the floor to the center of the bull's eye
  - soil to the tip of the spike
  - in inches
  - with shoes off, weight is taken in workout apparel
  - without shoes, standing on a flat surface
  - modeled by storing a Z value at each point
  - normal to the plane formed by the length and width
  - one of several variables believed to indicate healthy childhood growth and development
  - perpendicular because it is the shortest distance from a point to a line
  - polygenic and affected by environmental factors, especially nutrition
* is probably a combination of many genes, each acting in different ways
  - the single most important factor in determining range
  - represented on maps in a number of ways
  - safety
  - the average length from the soil surface to the top of the main stem of mature plants
* is the average length in inches from the ground to the tip of the main stem at maturity
  - of mature plants from the ground to the tip of the main stem
  - best way to approximate a child's size
* is the distance from the base of the tree to the topmost twig of the tree
  - bottom to the top of something standing upright
  - top of the wave to the bottom of the trough between two waves
  - hinge pin length
  - lowest point along the center line of the tarp
  - maximum number of edges between current node and any descendant
  - number of lines of text displayed in the field without scrolling
* is the vertical axis, first in inches, then in centimeters
  - distance from the ground to the highest leaf-tip
  - under the control of more than one gene, perhaps many
  - used to add capacity without increasing ground space
  - very important for rhombics, as it is for all antennas
* position of dominance.
* primary function of the average temperature of the air below that height surface.
* ranges from centimetres.
* refers to how tall the wall and openings are
  - terrain surface or vegetation
* represents the number of times each number showed up.
* result of growth only in apical meristems at the very tips of the twigs.
* special case of contours.
* varies with latitude and season.
