Telomere shortening puts a limit on the number of times a cell can divide. Research has shown that telomerase can extend the life span human cells. How might adding telomerase affect cellular aging?

Telomerase will speed up the rate of cell division.

Telomerase stops telomere shortening and slows or stops cellular aging. c) Telomerase shortens telomeres, which slows or stops cellular aging.

Telomerase shortens telomeres, which slows or stops cellular aging.

Telomerase would have no effect on cellular aging.
