Why and How Does the Body Age?
How the Body Ages:
The nucleus of every cell has 23 pairs of chromosomes. And they contain DNA or the genetic material of the cell. A prime cause of ageing is every cell's chromosomes are capped with a protein button called a telomere.As individuals age, these telomeres wear out and fray, slowing and halting
 The ability of the cells chromosomes to divide and make new cells. Normally, cells divide 75 times over a lifetime and afterwards the cell dies. Some dimensions of aging grow and expand over time, while others decline. Reaction time, for example, can slow down with age, while knowledge of world events and general wisdom may expand.
