Longevity

**Longevity** refers to the length of an individual's life or the duration of existence of an organism. In humans, longevity is often measured by life expectancy, which varies due to genetics, lifestyle, healthcare, and environmental factors. Some animals, such as certain tortoises or whales, are noted for exceptional longevity. Scientific research into longevity explores aging mechanisms, interventions to extend lifespan, and related sociocultural impacts. The study of longevity intersects with fields like gerontology, demography, and biomedicine.
