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C. elegans肌肉衰老的目的在于，基于肌肉图像推断线虫的年龄。C. elegans在不同生理年龄阶段的照片被收集，本图像属于第4天数据集。需要注意的是，由于个体间的变异性，尽管个体在遗传上具有同一性，形态学年龄与生理学年龄之间并不完全相关。该数据集的来源为美国国立卫生研究院国家老化研究所遗传学实验室。
