Study Notes
Physical and Sensory Changes in Late Adulthood
- Lifespan for humans is generally 120-125 years, but today's children may have shorter lives than their parents.
- Women tend to have better genetic/developmental stability, immune functioning, and lower rates of mental illness compared to men.
- Age categories in late adulthood include young-old (65-84), oldest-old (85-99), and centenarians (100+).
- Programmed theories of aging suggest that genes, cellular clocks, and hormonal stress play a role in the aging process.
- Telomeres, which are sequences of DNA at the ends of chromosomes, shorten as cells reproduce, leading to cell death or abnormalities.
- The immunological theory suggests that with age, the body's innate and adaptive immune systems lose their effectiveness.
- The hormonal stress theory suggests that the hypothalamus doesn't regulate hormones well, leading to metabolic problems.
- Damage/error theories propose that DNA damage, mitochondrial dysfunction, and free radicals contribute to aging.
- Physical changes in late adulthood include thickening of heart muscles, decreased lung capacity, and loss of kidney and bladder function.
- Body shape and composition change with age, with a loss of lean tissue, increased body fat, and decreased bone density.
- Skin becomes thinner, less elastic, and more prone to age spots and wrinkles, while hair follicles produce fewer new hairs and gray.
- Sarcopenia, the loss of muscle tissue, occurs as a natural part of aging and can lead to weakness, mobility issues, and frailty.
- Sensory changes in late adulthood include vision deterioration, hearing loss, decreased taste and smell sensitivity, and reduced touch sensations.
