Highlighted claims
- Offspring inherited parental fitness plus a small mutation term in the model. — Change and Aging Senescence as an Adaptation
- Most mutation-only runs still ended with extinction of the aging species, although 7 of 50 runs favored it. — Change and Aging Senescence as an Adaptation
- Rare large mutations were excluded from the simulation. — Change and Aging Senescence as an Adaptation
- Excessively large mutation strength eliminated the aging advantage. — Change and Aging Senescence as an Adaptation
- Mutation alone improved the aging species' competitiveness but usually did not prevent its extinction. — Change and Aging Senescence as an Adaptation
- The model's mutation assumptions omit many aspects of real genetic variation. — Change and Aging Senescence as an Adaptation
