Aging


Aging
Tenzin Choezin, XI A Science



As the time goes by a person looks in the mirror and see himself getting a different and variety of look as the time goes. This is called aging. Aging is the process of becoming older. As we grow old, we age and this brings a lot of changes in person’s life.

According to me, we grew old because of DNA oxidation. As the time passes, our bodies get oxidized as we inhale oxygen during respiration. In this century we are not able to find the real cause of aging. In some animals such as backward aging jelly fish has found as way to cheat death by actually reversing its aging process according to National Geographic. The jellyfish can return to its polyp stage over a three day period, transforming its cell into a younger state that will eventually grow into adulthood all over again.

IN the near future, it is possible that the scientists will find the cause of aging and discover some method to slow its and stop it and eventually even reverse it. If ageing can be stooped this will bring a huge change to the world. If anti-aging is possible then living or dying will be an option. Which is a great to me and I hope it is for you as well.
