Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The way in which the age of a cell predicted by its telomeric sequences has to explained.

Concept introduction:

Telomeres: They are the compound structure seen in the end of the chromosome.

Telomeres are covers present at the end which protect the chromosome ends from damaging it accidently. It also prevents the ends of DNA from fusing together with DNA of another chromosome.

Telomeres of human consist of long repetitive series of nucleotides. The telomeres of young cells are longer whereas the telomeres of older cells are shorter.
