How to use "Senescence" in context?
When we think of senescence, we might imagine a Nokia phone that's been used for way too long. We definitely don't think of old age as a time of vulnerability. However, senescence is one of the most important stages of life. It's the time when our systems, muscles, bones and other tissues start to break down. But instead of simply being a downhill spiral, senescence provides opportunities for growth and renewal.Understanding senescence begins with understanding how cells work. Cells are the building blocks of our bodies. They are the cells that make up skin, hair, organs and bones.
