    "abstract": "Author\u0027s early work on aging is developed to yield a relationship between\nlife spans and the velocity of aging. The mathematical analysis shows that the\nmean extent of the advancement of aging throughout one\u0027s life is conserved, or\nequivalently, the product of the mean life span, and the mean rate of aging is\nconstant. The result is in harmony with our experiences: It accounts for the\nunlimited replicability of tumor cells, and predicts the prolonged life spans\nof hibernating hamsters, in accordance with the Lyman and coworkers experiment.\nComparing the present result and the empirical relationship between life spans\nof various mammals and basal metabolic rates, it is suggested that the mean\nrate of aging is intimately connected with the mean basal metabolic rate. With\nthe help of this information, we inquire the reason of the difference in mean\nlife spans between women and men, the result showing that the relative mean\nlife span of women to men is 1 08, for various nations, which is close to the\ncorresponding relative value of the basal metabolic rate. The present theory\nsuggests, however, that this relationship between life spans and basal\nmetabolic rates must be treated with caution.",
