Answer:

The correct answer is option D) Decomposition

Explanation:

  • Decomposition of the body initially starts with Rigor mortis.
  • Rigor Mortis is a condition that occurs after death in which the muscles get stiffened due to the depletion of ATP's.
  • It starts to appear approximately 2 hours after death and starts to disappear only after 36 hours of death.
  • This is because the actin-myosin complexes formed start to disintegrate due to the occurance of proteolysis, thereby causing the dissolution of stiffened muscles.

The answer of all the question

Explanation:

  • Rigor mortis is a recognized sign of death, caused by the chemical changes in muscles after death. causing the whole body too stiff & lock in place, making it difficult to move.
  • It starts after about 3 to 4 hours of death, reaches maximum stiffness in 12 hours.
  • After death, respiration in an organism stop, oxygen availability gets decreases. ATP is required to cause the separation of the actin-myosin cross-bridges during the relaxation of the muscle. When oxygen is not available, the body continues to produce ATP via anaerobic-glycolysis.  
  • So, the correct option is A
