An autopsy, also known as a post-mortem examination, necropsy, or obduction, is a medical procedure that consists of a thorough examination of a corpse to determine the cause and manner of death and to evaluate any disease or injury that may be present.

The process by which a tectonic plate consisting of less heavy rock rides up over a heavier plate is known as subduction. The opposite of this process is called obduction.
