why do bodies look so different when they’re dead?

122 viewsBiologyOther

I 23(f) have lost two close friends in horrific circumstances over the last few years. Can anyone explain to me why bodies,
particularly faces, looks so different after death – is it because they’ve been embalmed, or is it the human brain not being able to process what they’re seeing infront of them? Apologies if this is too gruesome for this sub, i think this might be me grieving and just trying to find some way to understand why.

gravity plays a major role in bringing everything to the ground .. when muscles and tissues are no longer “excited” by their “minisicule” electric charge “-70 mvolts”, everything becomes flacid and organs and tissues tend to press against one another towards the ground .. a carcas is also noticibally heavier than a living body.
