The correct response is: Most individuals will be of average height.

Height in humans is a polygenic trait, meaning it is influenced by multiple genes, as well as environmental factors. This results in a normal distribution (bell curve) of height within populations, where the majority of individuals cluster around the average value, with fewer individuals at the extremes of very short or very tall heights.
