What happens to our bodies after we die? After Death

 What happens to all of those people's bodies after they die:

Since the beginning of humanity, at least 100.8 billion people have lived and died, about each year it also increases by 0.8% of the world's population.

The decomposing of Body

Today's our concern about What happens to all of those people's bodies after they die and will our system of planet in due course run out of burial space? When a person's heart failed to beat, the body goes through several type of stages before it begins decomposing.

a few minutes after death, the blood begins settling in the lower parts of the dead body.

Usually about at least eight to twelve hours later, the skin changed into discolored by livor mortis, or post- mortem stain. And while, the body's muscles relax completely in a condition called primary flaccidity, they get harden about two to six hours and known as rigor mortis.

This stiffening process continue towards the muscles, and its depend upon by age, gender, and the surrounding environment.

The body gets temperature cooling off to match its environment.

Next the process of decomposition, by which bacteria and insects break apart the body.

Rate of Decomposition of Body

Here are many factors that affect the rate of decomposition. The Casper's Law experienced that if all factors are equal, a dead body open to air decomposes twice as fast as one immersed in water and eight times as fast as one buried in earth. Soil acid substances also greatly affects bone preservation.

High-acidity of soils with a pH of less than 5.4 will quickly decompose bone, whereas in a basic normal soil with a pH of 7 or more, a skeleton of body can remain in relatively good condition for centuries.

Religious Approaches to Burial process

However, different cultures throughout history have developed unique approaches to burials.

As far back as the Indus Civilization Moan Jo Daru about 5000 bc first burials, death was accompanied by rituals, like the positioning, coloring, or decorating of corpses.

Traditional Christian burials decorate the body in dress. While in traditional Islam, a body is wrapped in a piece of ritual fabric with the face oriented toward Mecca.

On the other hand traditional Hindus ceremonially burn the body, and Zoroastrians, followers of one of the oldest monotheistic religions, traditionally place bodies atop a tower to expose them to the Sun and rummage by the vultures.`

Before the Renaissance, burials were simple and easy way to accessible.

Nowadays, with suitable burial land running out in high-population areas.

Purchasing private gravesites can be very expensive, and many people can't afford simple burials.

Even cremation / final disposition of a dead body through burning, the second most common burial practice in the world, comes with a high cost. 

Now, the question of shortage of space is because of that large populations heap together within cities.

Altogether the big cities in the world may run out of suitable burial grounds within a century
