The relationship between shortened telomeres and stem cell depletion has been seen in degenerative diseases such as mouse muscular dystrophy,
I) When is activated by damaged telomeres, DNA replication halts, and if the repair doesn’t work, apoptosis is initiated. If the cell is a stem cell or some other rapidly replicating cell, this will reduce the numbers of cells produced, and the lack of stem cells will produce an “aged” phenotype.
II) When is activated by damaged telomeres, DNA replication halts, repair do its work, apoptosis is inhibited. If the cell is a stem cell or some other rapidly replicating cell, this will increase the numbers of cells produced, and then these cells will produce an “aged” phenotype.

Match the Variation of Reaction Spontaneity (Sign of ΔG) given in Column I with the Signs of ΔH and ΔS given in column II.

COLUMN I	COLUMN II
	ΔH	ΔS	ΔG = ΔH – TΔS
1.	−	+	a. The reaction is both enthalpically and entropically opposed. It is nonspontaneous (endergonic) at all temperatures.
2.	−	−	b. The reaction is enthalpically opposed (endothermic) but entropically favored. It is spontaneous only at temperatures above T = ΔH/ΔS.
3.	+	+	c. The reaction is enthalpically favored but entropically opposed. It is spontaneous only at temperatures below T = ΔH/ΔS.
4.	+	−	d. The reaction is both enthalpically favored (exothermic) and entropically favored. It is spontaneous (exergonic) at all temperatures.
