[Answer] Telomere shortening puts a limit on the number of times a cell can divide. Research has shown that telomerase can extend the life span of cultured human cells. How might adding telomerase affect cellular aging?A) Telomerase will speed up the rate of cell proliferation.B) Telomerase eliminates telomere shortening and retards aging. C) Telomerase shortens telomeres which delays cellular aging. D) Telomerase would have no effect on cellular aging.
