Living things that die start to rot. Bacteria and bugs eat them, and the body--being dead--doesn't have any systems in place to prevent this (unless the dead person has been embalmed, which slows the decomposition process). So bodies decompose.
Yes, lime can be used to help decompose bodies by speeding up the process of decomposition.
Yes, lime can be used to help decompose dead bodies by accelerating the process of decomposition.
Our bodies after death decompose and disintegrate. Hindus burn dead bodies on the fire pyre others bury them in the grave.
Yes, there is scientific evidence and studies to back this up. Bodies today do not decompose as fast as the bodies from years ago due to the added preservatives in food.
Dead animals are animals that do not live anymore. Their bodies do not function and they decompose.
Anything no longer alive will decompose.
It rots like any other piece of spoiled meat.However most human bodies are embalmed now and they cannot rot, so they will not decompose at all.
Bacteria and or fungi decompose their bodies. Alternatively their bodies could be preserved in some way such as mineralization in fossils.
When squirrels die, their bodies are typically scavenged by other animals or decompose naturally.
If dead bodies don't decompose, they would remain intact for a much longer period of time. This could lead to various public health concerns due to the accumulation of bodies and potential spread of disease. It could also disrupt ecosystems by preventing the natural recycling of nutrients back into the environment.
The decomposers and scavengers are important in the ecosystem because they get rid of the dead bodies of animals that normally would take 5 years (plus or minus) to decompose.
Virus can help the world a lot! Some of them can help us decompose dead bodies on earth and without them our world will be covered with dead bodies!
