Answer:
The increase in death rates among older people after the reach a life milestone such as a birthday provides evidence of shortened telomeres.
Explanation:
- The process of ageing depends on the shortening of telomeres.
- The telomeres keep getting shorter and shorter through the course of life as the cells involve themselves in the process of copying and re-copying.
- The telomeres make it possible for the cells to copy themselves without sticking to each other as they form the ends of the chromosomes.
