Is immortality mathematically impossible?

624 views

A couple of years ago, there was this information flowing around on the internet that “immortality is mathematically impossible”, and as an average consumer I just accepted it. Today, it randomly clicked me that I should ask why.

Q1: Is this claim even true? Because we already know that immortal jellyfishes exist and they can reverse aging (hopefully I’m not wrong here).

Q2: How does math play a role in this claim? (really curious about this one)

Lastly: I don’t know if i should flair this post as ‘Biology’ or ‘Math’?

It’s more physics than maths, but yes. Every process loses energy over time until it just stops.

Entropy wins against everything.
