Why do some animals live longer than others?
In: Biology
Things on the end of dna called telomeres help the dna replicate properly bc DNA looses a bit of length every time it replicates (I could go into detail but will spare u). Animals that live longer have longer have longer telomere regions in their DNA —> their DNA replicates for longer periods of time renewing cells and stuff without issue —> animal lives longer
