groups, the number of repetitions and length of occurrence group numbers (1st or 2nd) will be random. If there are differences between the groups, the alternating groups and the frequency of their occurrence will be uneven. The results of this comparison are presented in Table 3.

To analyze the differences in the distribution of lifespan у between men and women in the 1 st and 2 nd group maximum life span was divided into 10-year periods, in the repartitions of which was estimated the incidence of death in men and women who were bom with low and high CA. Frequency distribution of deaths within these groups are presented in Table 4. Table 4.

In the 1st group, on contrary, death rate increased after 60 years and in this group there are a high percentage of centenarians. In order to identify the significance of the differences between the life expectancy of men and women bom in the years with different levels of CA, was used the Mann-Whitney test, as described above. Results of the assessment of differences using this test are shown in Table 5. Table 5. Evaluation of the significance of differences in lifespan for men and women in the 1 st and 2 nd groups _______________________ using the Mann-Whitney_____ _________ _______ Gender number of observations sum of the ranks U P gr 1 gr 2 gr 1 gr 2 male 251 224 67225,50 45824,50 20624,50 <0,001 female 268 224 67213,00 54065,00 28865,00 0,464 The data in Table 5 show that between the life expectancy of men bom in the years of low and high SA are significant differences, whereas between the life expectancy of women belonging to different groups, no significant differences were found. Thus, we have shown that the SA in the year of birth determines the life span. The average life expectancy of people bom in years with low SA of 8.4 years higher than in those bom in the year with a high SA. 181
