The pre-requite of human voice's pitches is related to their body size. Just like violin is in the smallest size in the strings family. Its sound is surely in the highest pitches. While the double bass is in the biggest size. Its sound is surely in the lowest pitches.
There are also many singers having a mini body size. That’s why they are naturally having a higher voice (both male and female).
Even you're not born with a mini body size. You can still doing vocal exercises to train your voice to sing higher.
You need to stretch the vocal folds thinner and increase the vibration frequency in order to sing higher. Our vocal folds are similar to the strings of violin. The thinner the folds, the higher the pitch; the thicker folds, the lower pitch.
Pre-requisite in training higher voice
Proper abdominal breathing
Already have a strong chest voice
Must have enough vocal tract (the tunnel from larynx to lips) space. The higher the pitches, the more space we need (open vertically instead of horizontally)
Keep relaxing your neck, jaw and tongue. If you have tension in these areas, you cannot sing high
