              Notes

    Life span, or life expectancy, is measured either as the maximum
age achieved by a member or as an average among the population. The
former reveals the genetic potential, whereas the latter reflects the
habitability of the environment and is thus considered meaningful.
    Human beings are the longest-living mammals and among the
longest-living of all animals. In 1978, the highest authenticated age
 was 113.
