In 2026, two cutting-edge research findings have sparked extensive academic discussions. The first relates to the essence of consciousness, which subverts traditional cognition yet leaves researchers confused. The second uncovers a "time lock" structure in mitochondrial DNA that regulates cellular aging. Mainstream physics and life sciences fail to offer consistent interpretations for both phenomena, revealing the absence of a fundamental ontological framework. Based on the PFUSRC theoretical system, this paper logically analyzes the origin of consciousness and the regulatory mechanism of aging by adopting core concepts including the Noetic Primordium (Ψ), the Affective Primordium (Ξ), the Noetic Cell and the systemic exclusion mechanism. It clarifies two core viewpoints: consciousness is anchoring closure rather than an external signal, and aging is an exclusion mechanism instead of a reversible program. Meanwhile, a systematic revision of relevant terminology is completed. This study holds that the two research outcomes do not contradict the PFUSRC framework; on the contrary, they serve as empirical evidence for its prior predictions.
