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 8 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，推断其生物年龄。秀丽线虫图像采集于不同的时间节点，以体现其生长的各个阶段。其中，本图像属于第8天的数据集。需要注意的是，尽管秀丽线虫个体在遗传上具有高度一致性，但由于个体间的差异，其形态学年龄与实际年龄并非完全一致。本数据集的来源为美国国家老年研究所遗传学实验室。
