Which of the following is not a reason we become shorter as we age?

As a person ages, the ligaments connecting vertebrae together are weakened, resulting in a more pronounced kyphosis. This posterior curvature of
the spine lowers the skull, making you shorter.
As a person ages, the intervertebral discs become thinner and the vertebrae will be stacked closer together, resulting in shorter stature.
As a person ages, scoliosis may develop resulting in an abnormal spinal curvature and shorter stature.
