how does someone, e.g. a detective distinguish if a stab wound is made before or after death?

Don’t worry this isn’t anything alarming. I’m in the process of writing a whodunit and I just want to know if there are any signs that occur/do not occur in a stab wound that is made after death? Any answers would be a great deal of help. Thanks!

Essentially the question, whether it be stab wound, or water in the lungs etc, is ‘are there tell tale signs that the body tried to respond/react to this danger’. If not then it was probably because they were already dead when it happened.
