The thymus becomes smaller with age as well as decreased immune system function.
The process of shrinking of the thymus is known as involution. This process occurs with any tissue that is not in frequent use. Before an individual reaches adulthood, the immune system has produced most of its T-cells. Therefore, new T-cells do not need to be produced, so the tissue of the thymus gland is replaced by adipose tissue.

Blowfly adults looking for a place to lay their eggs
Explanation:
Blowfly adults are attracted to the gases and fluids of a dead body and usually lay their eggs on a dead body within the first two days after death.
The eggs then turn into larvae then enter pupal stages and then become adults themselves. Forensic entomologists can determine how long a body has been dead by the stage of development of the blowfly with the ambient temperatures that have been present.
