| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | Explains that the central concept in the evolutionary theory of senescence is the idea that aging results from life-history trade-offs. In particular, the disposable soma theory suggests that longevity is determined through the setting of longevity assurance mechanisms so as to provide an optimal compromise between investments in somatic maintenance (including stress resistance) and in reproduction. Gives comparative studies among mammalian species that confirms that cells from long-lived species appear to have a greater intrinsic capacity to withstand stresses than cells from short-lived species |
