Introduction

We all know from our botany classes that plants exhibit tropism. A plant will turn towards the Sun or magnetic fields will affect the growth of a plant. There is some evidence that tropism happens in humans as well.

Discussion

The Dutch and Norwegians are among the tallest group of homo sapiens. (Article on google about tallest humans) 1. Norway gets the most sunlight with never ending sunlight for about 76 days [1]. Many of the tallest nations are Montenegro, Germany, and countries like Slovenia and Croatia. A possible explanation for that increased height is more sunlight in Europe.

“Does Norway Get a Lot of Sun?

Norway. Norway, situated in the Arctic Circle, is called the Land of the Midnight Sun, where from May to late July, the sun actually never sets. This means that for around a period of 76 days, the sun never goes down. Aug 26, 2022” [2].

The top 5 groups of human nations in Bill Bostock’s list are Netherlands, Latvia, Estonia, Denmark, Czech Republic.

Conclusion

We conclude there exists possible tropism or growth towards the sun among humans. Something else may be increasing growth and height among Europeans, but that topic is open to discussion like better diet and nutrition.
