Title: Re: Rethink Disruption - Cynthia Kenyon Post by: no-ice-please on August 14, 2015, 04:05:44 AM a) A gene that when destroyed completely prevents an animal from maturing. Without the gene the animal does not mature at all.
b) But you damage the gene a bit and the animal lives twice as long. The problem is in seeing age or maturity only as a function of time. There are many ways to gauge the age of an individual of whatever species. Let's say instead of extending years you wanted to offer grey hair instantly. So a person could say "I am only 20 years old but this new gene therapy turned my hair grey, so my life is improved now". Is it not likely that a gene that has developed over many generations is somehow intertwined with other systems? |
