We review the empirical data obtained with our normal-lived Ra control strain of Drosophila and show that this one genome is capable of invoking at least three different responses to external stimuli that induce the animal to express one of three different extended longevity phenotypes, each of which arises from one of three different antagonistic molecular mechanisms of stress resistance. The phenotypes are...
