Which of the following is a vital statistic that may be recorded?

Vital statistics refer to data related to important life events, particularly those that are recorded for demographic and health purposes. In the context of funeral services, height and weight of the deceased are considered vital statistics because they provide essential information about the individual’s physical characteristics. These details might be important for genealogical purposes, medical records, or in some cases, legal documents.

The other options, while they may be relevant to the funeral service experience, do not fall under the category of vital statistics. For example, the location of burial services is pertinent to the planning and logistics of the funeral but does not provide data on the individual's life demographics. The number of flowers sent to the funeral reflects memorial gestures rather than personal or vital metrics. Lastly, parking availability at the funeral home pertains to logistics and convenience for attendees, not to the deceased's statistics. Thus, height and weight are the only vital statistics listed in the options.
