Popis | Although plants age like any other organisms, they have evolved to defy death for millennia and potentially forever. Aging is an inherent part of life that touches every living organism on our planet. It directly affects each individual as we witness how our bodies, health, and abilities change as we age. We experience a notable peak in physical performance at a certain age, followed by a gradual decline until death. Humans have long been captivated by the quest for the fountain of youth and unlocking the secrets of aging and longevity has fascinated scientists, philosophers, and many other individuals alike throughout the course of human history. It comes as no surprise that humans and animals have always been the primary focus of aging research and the theoretical framework of aging has been developed with these organisms in mind. |
