Answer:

genetic preprogramming theories

Step-by-step explanation:

According to genetic reprogramming theories, The overall lifespan that humans have is mostly determined by the genetics that we inherited from our parents.

Theorists who supported this view tend to see aging as a result of our existing body no longer working properly, and nothing can we really do to fix it.

Even though some of the view is correct, it fails to considers the influence of our environment and habits, (For example, living in area with clear air and adopting a healthy diet and lifestyle are proven to increase our lifespan.)
