What you will do today…
• You will infer a person’s height from the length of one bone
• You will apply a simple calculation to the observed length and will develop a “best guess” for body height

Discussion
• Why are your calculated heights not EXACTLY correct?
• How could you make your calculated measurements more accurate?
• How do forensic scientists determine a formula that correlates to MOST individuals?
