Answer 1

The growth of a person is monitored by growth hormones in human beings , which is secreted by Master gland ''Pituitary Gland''. It is more or less secreted in a person's body depending on his diet. In case of girls, their body secretes more growth hormones during the age of 8 - 13.

But in case of boys, it is secreted during age of 12 - 15 or 16 , during Puberty.

So, girls grow faster than boys. But its secretion stops at a particular age which is different for every person. By age of 18, this growth hormone stops being secreted.
