Answer:

C) decreased functional reserve

Explanation:

Ageing is a biological process which leads to the loss of function of the tissue and cells of the organism.

The biological ageing is determined genetically and can be correlated with the chronological ageing. The ageing is also influenced by the environmental factors which could interfere with the physiology, anatomy and morphology of the organisms.

The cell division cycle gets arrested to prevent the proliferation of these damaged cells and to remove the harmful factors from the body. This leads to the loss of function of the cells and tissues.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

Why "charge" reduces rate of diffusion in cell membrane
Over [174]

Answer:

Each ion or charged molecule in a fluid contributes to the fluid's overall electric charge. A difference in charge between two regions of fluid can affect the rate and direction of diffusion between them. For example, positively charged substances will tend to diffuse toward a region with an overall negative charge.
