Document Summary
Knes 355 lecture 24 maturity-associated variation in growth & performance. Outline: maturity-associated variation in body size, maturity-associated variation in body composition. Lines represent the age at maximum phv (13, 14, and 15 years). Top two panels are boys, bottom two panels are girls: early-maturing children of both sexes are taller and heavier than average- maturing and late maturing age and sex peers from 6 years of age onward. Late maturers have a smaller amplitude of phv in terms of the actual rate. Variation in body composition during sexual maturation: figure 17. 4 = size and body compositions of boys of. In general, and in every instance, the early maturers at 11, 12, 13, and 14 years, are heavier, taller, have a greater ffm than their age-matched peers who are late maturers. So, within each age group, boys advanced in maturity status are, on average, taller and heavier and have a higher ffm.
