Quasi means “resembling” or “seemingly, but not really.” Quasi-program of aging is not a program but a continuation of developmental programs that were not switched off upon their completion [24, 50]. They purposelessly unfold, leading to age-related diseases, secondary organ failure and death. Quasi-programmed (program-like) aging is associated with higher than optimal cellular and systemic functions, which eventually, via cellular exhaustion and organ damage, lead to functional decline (Figure 2). For example, starting from birth, blood pressure increases and continues to increase after organismal growth is completed. Therefore, hypertension is the most prevalent age-related disease. In turn, hypertension can cause organ damage: stroke, infarction and renal failure. Similarly, obesity develops in post-development as a continuation of growth (yet, it can be prevented by low caloric diets, illustrating that quasi-program of aging can be decelerated).
Quasi is a Latin word that means “as if” or “in a similar way.” A quasi-contract is one in which the parties do not intend to enter into a real contract. It is similar to a contract, in which the law requires a person to perform an obligation on the basis of equity. The principle of equity states that “a person shall not be allowed to enrich himself unjustly at the expense of another.” Quasi-contract is based on this principle. To put it another way, no one should receive or accept any benefit unfairly. If that’s the case, he owes it to the rightful owner. Quasi-contractual obligations are such obligations. For example, “X” accidentally leaves his bag at Y’s house. “Y” is obligated to return it to “X” under the terms of a quasi-contract. These obligations are regarded as contractual by law, despite the fact that they are not. Such obligations were originally known as obligationes quasi ex contractu in Roman law, but they are now known as quasi-contractual in English law. Quasi contracts are those that are formed through the intervention of the courts rather than through a formal agreement and the consent of the parties. Under Chapter V of the Indian Contract Act, 1872, quasi-contractual obligations are very precisely defined with examples.
