The purpose of the dataset C. elegans muscle aging is to deduce the age of the nemathode based on images of muscles. Images of C. elegans were taken at different chronological ages. This image is part of the day 4 data set. Note that the morphological and chronological ages are not fully correlated due to the variability among individuals even though the individuals are genetically identical. The source for the dataset is Laboratory of Genetics/NIA/NIH.

本数据集旨在通过分析秀丽线虫肌肉图像，推断其生物学年龄。实验中采集了不同发育时期的秀丽线虫图像，其中本图像属于第4天的数据集。值得注意的是，由于个体间的遗传同质性以及变异性的存在，形态学年龄与实际年龄并非完全一致。数据集的来源为美国国家卫生研究院（NIH）国家老龄化研究所（NIA）遗传学实验室。
