About this document
Understanding Aging: Genetics and Factors by Samir Eshonqulov is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Aging is primarily caused by changes to body cells that hinder their ability to divide, influenced by genetic factors such as aging genes and telomeres. Progeria is a rare genetic disorder leading to rapid aging in children, while telomeres play a crucial role in cellular replication and longevity. Environmental factors like alcohol and smoking can accelerate cell death, contributing to aging and related diseases.
