Tevon Joseph · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : A, B, D, E, Explanation :  The major hypotheses of aging include damage to mitochondria and DNA from free radicals, which contribute to cellular damage over time. The cell death clock hypothesis suggests a programmed limit to cell division, while death genes imply genetic programming for aging. Damage to lysosomes is not a major hypothesis of aging.
