Why do women have a longer life expectancy than men?

History
1 answer:
Allushta [10]3 years ago
6 0

Women have longer life expectancy than men because it is biologically supported. <u>Firstly, women engage less in behaviors that are bad for health than men</u> such as excess smoking and drinking. In addition to that, <u>women currently better profit from advanced health care and better living conditions</u> such as regular medical check-ups.

Moreover, from the genetics perspective, when mutation occurs of one gene of the X chromosome, <u>women have another X chromosome for compensation which increases their resistance to biological aging</u>. Lastly, men participate in activities/works especially those that <u>utilize more muscles and energy that result into their worn out state faster than compared to women .</u>

il63 [147K]
False

Slave codes were laws and generally had nothing to do with how a slave owner treated the slaves. Most people who owned slaves saw them as property and so 's they treated them as property. Slavery in it's self is wrong and this was true with American slavery. The American form of slavery was very cruel because it not only enslaved people but took away every thing that they were. Their name, language, religion, and culture was taken from them.
