Death, Aging, Rejuvenation (Part 3)  by: Aleksandr Kavokin, MD,PhD Aging How did aging appeared? If mechanism of Death was chosen by evolution, how was aging chosen? Why for example at certain age animals do not die instantly and just give the room for the next generation. Nurturing is one explanation at least for human society. But lets say new generation of young adults already reached puberty . Why would not old generation die in an instant. Why do they age? Actually there is nothing impossible. Some butterflies grow couple years, mate, produce new generation and die in one day. Some plants live 1 year, some live 2 years and then invariably die. Some live 1000 years. Lemmings, having overgrowth of population, just go and massively commit suicide in the sea. No questioned asked. Why aging in other animals take several years? It might be selected by cut-throat evolution during another catastrophe. A relatively mild Cataclysm happened in the same time when all adults died programmed to do so. Older animals would survive the disaster. But they died instantly from internal timer. Younger generation did not tolerate the mishap. All species that did it - just disappeared. Younger animals were not adapted to new conditions. Only animals with mechanism of aging were selected. Maybe the aged animals are not so good as younger ones. They already slightly deteriorated. But it is better than nothing. Anyway. It makes sense why Death and Aging were selected during the Evolution. - continued in Part 4 About The Author Aleksandr Kavokin, MD,PhD http://www.geocities.com/aging_rejuvenation/ http://www.geocities.com/usmle_test aging_rejuvenation@yahoo.com This article was posted on July 28, 2004   View More Videos from the "Health" category: Minority Health Care Foods to Avoid While Trying to Get Pregnant Level 1 Six Pack Abs Fitness Workout Learn About the Different Types of Postpartum Depression   Read More Articles from the "Health" Category: A New Mattress for Better Sleep by Ben Webb Varicose Veins Not Just A Cosmetic Problem by Elizabeth Catalanotto Lose Weight Cycling by Gary Gresham Why Does the Weight Come Back? by Kim Beardsmore Alcoholism Treatment Options by William Doyle The First Of A 12 Step Program To Clear Acne by Paul Stevens A Constipation Home Remedy - Cayenne by Rudy Silva How Depression Effects Learning Disabilities by Alex Fir Enlarged Prostate Treatment by Ethel Henry Can Fasting Help Me To Lose Weight? by Dada Vedaprajinananda << Back to "Health" Index
