Biology of aging

the theory that aging follows from organisms being built of redundant but initially defective parts, which accounts for Gompertz-like mortality and late-life plateaus.

In biology of aging, reliability theory of aging refers to the theory that aging follows from organisms being built of redundant but initially defective parts, which accounts for Gompertz-like mortality and late-life plateaus. This meaning comes from Gavrilov (2001) in Journal of Theoretical Biology.[1]
