Understand the typical physical changes that occur in aging adults by reviewing common physiological effects of aging on the body.
Recognize that aging is generally associated with a decline in muscle mass, known as sarcopenia, which leads to decreased strength and slower movement.
Recall that aging usually results in thinner, not thicker, hair, decreased skin elasticity, and slower reflexes rather than faster ones.
Note that bone density tends to decrease with age, increasing the risk of fractures, and coordination often declines rather than improves.
Conclude that the option describing decreased muscle mass and slower movement aligns with typical aging-related physical changes.
