Death....





Death is the permanent end of the life of a biological organism. Death may refer to the end of life as either an event or condition.[1] Many factors can cause or contribute to an organism's death, including predation, disease, habitat destruction, senescence, malnutrition and accidents.

In medicine, biological details and definitions of death have become increasingly complicated as technology advances.
