  Yes, height generally affects weight. Taller individuals typically weigh more than shorter individuals, primarily due to the increased body mass associated with greater height. However, body composition (muscle, fat, bone density) and individual factors like genetics, diet, and physical activity also play significant roles in determining weight.
