What does science say about death?

9 Answers

Thanatology is the scientific study of death and the losses brought about as a result.

Biologists have tried to answer ‘what is life’ and ‘what is death’ but so far no exact scientific answers have been formulated or accepted. Now if I am not wrong, there are actually hundreds of definitions to what death is, but none is fully acceptable or satisfying to everyone, and this remains a controversial topic.

The case with ‘what is life’ is even more weak. Again, scientists have not been able to come up with a scientific definition. Answering these questions is an ongoing effort, but so far, no concrete answers are available in biological science.

Yes, I agree death is a part of life, but considering non-functioning body as death is partial true. Because in case of coma ama palaysis, body becomes disfunctional but heart and mind are active, which means that the person is still alive.

According to me, death is when mind and heart completely stops functioning. It's a very scary concept. For some, it may be natural while for some, it may be unnatural. You can never predict when death will come to you. But, we shall never forget that you only live once is a wrong phrase.You live everyday and die only once. Hence, one should live life to the fullest.

Scientifically death is caused when the heart stops beating and there is no supply of oxygen to the brain and the body cells. It results to toxicity of the carbondioxide thus suffocating the cells.

Yes, your answer is reasonable but from what I know heart cam get replaced, but brain can not. So, I guess when brain stop working that is the time we can say that the person is dead.

Death is naturally occured in human life. Every person passed away at any time in his life. Death is fixed to a man at the time of his born by the God.

Obsessive thoughts of death can come from anxiety as well as depression. They might include worrying that you or someone you love will die. These intrusive thoughts can start out as harmless passing thoughts, but we become fixated on them because they scare us.

When you die, your brain may know it. Researchers say that after your heart stops, your brain stops working as well. If your brain has shut down, how is that possible? But many people who have been resuscitated and, essentially, brought back to life -- describe experiences that occurred after death.

Personally speaking, death is a beautiful thing to know by us. Some people are scared of the word 'death.' It is a part of life that needs not be scary.

Death can refer to many different things as it appears in nature. Some people believe that death is an natural event that happens to a person when they turn 18, while others may believe that it is caused by a variety of factors, including lifestyle choices. Ultimately, no one knows for sure what death is.
