Select the correct option : Somatotyping profile of (4, 4, 1) is considered as

  • A.Endomorph Mesomorph
  • B.Endomorphic Mesomorph
  • C.Balanced Mesomorph
  • D.Mesomorphic Endomorph

Answer: A

A somatotype of 4-4-1, where the numbers give endomorphy, mesomorphy and ectomorphy in that order, has endomorphy and mesomorphy equal and high, with ectomorphy low. In the Heath-Carter system this is an endomorph-mesomorph: the two leading components are equal, and ectomorphy is the lowest. The keyed answer is the first option, as printed. The balanced mesomorph needs all components equal, and the mesomorphic endomorph or endomorphic mesomorph forms need one component to exceed the other by at least half a unit.
