Human<unk>  is a complex phenomenon with sophisticated detail and function. The general<unk>  or figure of a person is defined mainly by the molding of skeletal structures, as well as the distribution of muscles and fat. Skeletal structure grows and changes only up to the point at which a human reaches adulthood and remains essentially the same for the rest of their life. Growth is usually completed between the ages of 13 and 18, at which time the epiphyseal plates of long bones close, allowing no further growth (see Human skeleton). Many aspects of<unk>  vary with gender and especially female<unk>  has a complicated cultural history. The science of measuring and assessing<unk>  is called anthropometry.
