Longevity

**Longevity** refers to the length of an individual's life or the duration of life in a population. It is often used interchangeably with "life expectancy," although longevity specifically focuses on unusually long lifespans. Factors influencing longevity include genetics, lifestyle, environmental conditions, medical advancements, and socioeconomic status. Various species, including humans, exhibit significant differences in longevity. Efforts to study and extend longevity are central to fields like gerontology and biogerontology. Interest in longevity has grown due to aging populations and improved healthcare.
