Replicative senescence - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Review Kennedy and Dunphy readings for age related changes Replicative senescence is theory states that cells can replicate or divide a specific number of times. This ability tends to decrease with age. Oxidative damage is the cumulative result of the aerobic metabolism, which generates chemicals called free radicals. Free radicals may interact with other chemicals in the body and cause damage to cells. Telomere shortening is a theory that links aging to a reduction in cell division. Weakenin...
