∙ 11y agoRigor mortis typically begins in the muscles of the face and jaw before spreading to other parts of the body.
Calcium is a necessary part of human biochemistry, and no living person has no calcium ions in their body.
Yes, after death the body can release fluids due to processes like decomposition and rigor mortis which can cause bodily fluids to be expelled. The release of fluids after death is a normal part of the decomposition process.
The answer is that muscles use ATP to relax, allowing the next part of the contraction process to occur. After death, a lack of energy causes a failure of muscle relaxation on a microsopic level and so a stiffness. Rigor Mortis is caused by lack of ATP which causes tight binding of myosin 2 heads to actin. This doesn't last long, however, as the muscles quickly decompose and become soft again.

Typically, the head is the first body part to grow in a developing fetus. This is because the brain and facial features begin to form early in gestation.

Cheek, chest, chin, collarbone, cornea and cuspid tooth are body parts. They begin with the letter c.
Lips, lungs, leg and liver are body parts. They begin with the letter l.
It isn't just your arms, its the entire body. Its called rigor mortise. And its quite interesing, the fingers on the hands curl in as well as the wrists and you can flatten them out, but as soon as you let go, it curls back up again. And you can actually break rigor, it makes a snapping sound like breaking a bone, at that point whatever part you broke the rigor in wont curl back to the original position.
Stomach, spinal cord and skull are body parts. They begin with the letter S.
