Adolescence is a transitional phase from a child to an adult. In this period there arises an intensive growth of the whole body especially in height. Our aim was to establish body height, body mass, medium scope of a rib cage shoulder width, pelvic width and lower extremity length as well as the existence of specific relations and the intensity of mutual influences of variables included in the examination of adolescents in Sombor. We examined 709 pupils of Secondary Medical School among which 578 were female and 131 were male pupils. The results have shown the existence of statistically significant and high correlations among specific variables of morphological status. The highest correlation exists between body height and leg length and it is 0,854 with boys and 0,823 with girls. Correlations between body mass and scope of a rib cage and between body mass and shoulder width that is between body mass and pelvic width are also very high. Correlation value between shoulder width and pelvic width is 0,509 with boys, and 0,472 with girls. Anthropometric characteristics can be classified in two groups. Body height and leg length characteristics belong to the first group while body mass, scope of a rib cage, shoulder and pelvic width make the second group.
