To determine how many heads high the woman is, we need to analyze the segments described in your question.

Assuming the average proportions are that each segment is about one head high, we can typically break down a person's height in terms of heads:

  1. Foot to mid-calf
  2. Mid-calf to knee
  3. Knee to mid-thigh
  4. Mid-thigh to hip joint
  5. Hip joint to chest
  6. Chest to chin
  7. Chin to top of head

By counting these segments, we see there are 7 segments.

Thus, if each segment is approximately one head high, the woman in the drawing is 7 heads high.

The correct response is 7.
