Lividity can be defined as the typical bluish-purple discoloration of the skin after death. Rigor mortis can be defined as the postmortem state in which the muscles become stiff.
- After death, the stomach contains identifiable ingested foods within two hours.
- Rigor mortis is characterized by the stiffening of the body after death, which is caused by the absence of ATP in muscle tissues.
- Postmortem lividity or livor mortis is caused by the accumulation of blood in blood vessels (the lack of arterial pressure) as a result of gravity.

Answer:
Dogs are wonderful human companions. They are the first species that humans domesticated and they have a long history of close relationships with people.
If you spend any time with dogs (I have two wonderful adopted dogs who shower me with affection and fur), then you see first-hand the many ways that dogs can respond to their owners. A dog may treat a stranger with suspicion, but dances with joy when its owner returns. Indeed, when one of our grown children returns after a long absence, the dogs respond with excitement.
Loess is a geologically material which is usually yellowish or brown in color and consisting of tiny mineral particles brought by wind to the places where they now lie. It is a sedimentary deposit of mineral particles which are finer than sand but coarser than dust or clay, deposited by the wind. Loess is a type of silt which forms fertile topsoil in some parts of the world. The soil has few clay particles to hold it together. It is composed mainly of quartz crystals which slide easily against each other, and is therefore very subject to erosion.
