Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Decreased vigor of the immune response is genetically programmed, but it is intensified by other aging processes. While random events and elevated free-radical activity may also contribute to aging and decreased immune response, they are not the main causes of the decline. Separation of protein fibers is not directly related to immune response.
