NORMATIVE LITTLE DEATHS. “One can now list the number of times particular tissues are replaced in one year: lining of the small intestine; lining of the stomach; epidermal covering of the lips; hepatocytes of the liver; lining of the trachea; and lining of the bladder. And all this replacement is perfectly normal and not a consequence of trauma. Ultimately, biologists recognized the role of cells in death as well as life: a living thing dies when its cells no longer develop or maintain it.”
