Learning karate, or participating in any other sport, will not stunt someone's growth.
Like all sports and physical activity of all types, there are risks associated with them.
from age 5 onwards, there is no maximum age for karate.
Children typically start learning karate around the age of 5 or 6 years old.
No, it does not! I drink a lot of tea and I am a 5"8 girl at age 15. Coffe can stunt your growth, but not tea. It is proven that tea is good for you, of course in moderations.
Children can start learning karate as early as 4 or 5 years old, but the ideal age to begin is typically around 6 or 7 years old.

You start by learning it with your instructor. Trying to provide a description would not help you much, and each school does things slightly differently.

In brief, no it will not. Besides, your height has already been determined through your DNA.

The last answer stated that yes swimming would stunt your growth but however that is totally wrong. If you swim to much you might hurt yourself but you wont stunt your growth. Look at Michael phelps he swims 6 hours a day and you expect me to believe it stunted his growth. The avg height for the previous 8 finalists for the U.S olympic swim was 6 FT 5 IN (wikipedia). Swimming makes your spine longer. Now excessive weightlifting is detrimental to height for the fact that you can fracture your growth plate. back to swimming, swimming is a low impact sport so you will not stunt growth but you might drown.
