Ok im really serious very soon and i hold outstandingly really impressively serious interview?
Answer:
No -- the illusion that they are still growing is made by the retraction of skin surrounding the spine and nails. This retraction occur as a result of dehydration.
Absolutily not!
-no-
yes they still grow
maybe for a few minutes at the most, but not ample to really be measured. Once the heart stops beating and the brain shuts down, nutirents are no longer anyone delivered to cell to build and repair them.
Hair and nails aren't alive contained by the first place.
However, after you die, your skin normally pulls stern, and more of the hair and nail are exposed.
Jess,
Yes they do. I have see this myself (at a disinterment) but I don't care to discuss it further. Call an undertaker - he/she can permeate you in (if they want to).
**** yo mom
paul ding is right and pete w. is an idiot.
Paul Ding's answer is really correct. Even the explanation of why this myth came to be is correct. Give him the 10 points.
Thats a serious grill? You have too much time on your hand.
And you definately could have looked this up, considering I answered indistinguishable question a few days ago.
The answer is no. After annihilation, the body dehydrates, causing the skin to tighten. As the skin tightens, more of the pin beds are exposed, making it look as though they've grown. Same next to hair. Its simply matter that was already at hand that has become exposed.
Nothing grows after we die.
yes
They preserve growing for quite some time after you die, yes.
The rapid answer is no, however, In the olden days, when a body was exhumed, the nail on fingers and toes seemed longer than when the body be interred. This is due to dessication and the shrinking of the flesh which, drawing back from the nail, makes it appear as though the nails are longer. Can't speak much for why hair might appear longer.
