Questions regarding Clones

[Minuteman75]

Hey gangs, it's me again. This is a bit random but I have some questions concerning the clone troopers if anyone can answer them. Age wise how long could a clone live if should said trooper survive the clone wars? I noticed how old Rex, Wolfe, and Gregor, gotten in the Rebels show, but was wondering if they stop aging fast once they reach adulthood or does it continue. Second question could a clone and an human have children together biologically?

Of course Cut Lawquane, the deserter had a family with the Twi'lek Suu, but her kids were only adopted by him. Then again it was possible in the legends lore but no clear answer from the current canon so far from what I read or heard so far. I'll understand if no one can provide answers to these questions, just was curious.

Clones age twice as fast as humans in Star Wars. According to Wookiepedia, the average life expectancy of a human is 71 years (in Legends, it was 100-120). Assuming it's rapid aging across the board, a clone survivor can expect to survive for about 35 years. Obviously, this can vary. Rex was born in 32 BBY, so he's biologically 64. I would say he'd probably live to see the fall of the Empire, but people who resist His majesty's Empire do not live for very long.

Clones are not sterile. That said, it would be a pretty bad idea on the Republic's part to let the clones reproduce. They need soldiers that are obedient to the Chancellor, not to a family. More importantly, allowing 6 million+ people with the same genotype to reproduce would effectively nuke the Republic's gene pool. And this is Star Wars, home of the incestuous twin kiss. Imagine tens of millions of people with the same daddy (genetically speaking). That's bad. Not to mention you'd have tens of millions of people who look vaguely like Temuera Morrison. Take that as you will. The inhibitor chip probably stops them from reproducing.
